PETA Unveils Anti-Seal Hunt Game

[The_root_of_all_evil]

Spoiler: WARNING! TASTELESS HUMOUR INSIDE!

I lol'd.

Clubby the Seal [http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/149398] did this far better though.

They want to stop seal clubbing by, get this, boycotting maple syrup.

Be right back smashing head against wall.....

Hey if we cant kill animals can we kill PETA members instead?

I didn't even know there was such a tradition in Canada, but wow, seriously? And they are proud of that? I'm sorry but that's fucking barbaric, it's like promoting a tradition of stabbing puppies to death just because it's "customary", I mean what the fuck? Well, thanks PETA for bringing this to my attention I guess, although there's not much I can do about it, but in any case I see nothing wrong with peaceful protest in an imaginative way, such as they are doing.

Who said we were proud of it? I know I'm definitely not. And also, hunting newborn harp and hooded seals has been banned since 1987.

I'm proud of it >.>'

Shush! We can't let them know. It's called a secret for a reason, you fool!

We also can't let them know that seals are actually filled with candy.

OH Shi- uh ... just act natural if anyone asks it's all a ploy to sell maple syrup...

I honestly didn't think Canada would be the kind of country to have a freaking annual Seal Hunt. I'm actually pretty disappointed about that.

"It is illegal in Canada to hunt newborn harp seals known as "whitecoats". It is also illegal to hunt young, hooded seals (bluebacks)"

Unfortunately, after the pups molt their coast after 15 days, then they can be commercially hunted but the government regulates the intake so there's a limit on how many can be hunted.

Then of course, there's the seal hunt for the Inuit, but they generally only take one seal per year and it's for sustenance only.

Also, Canada isn't the only country to have a seal hunt. Norway, Greenland, Namibia, and Russia participate in seal hunting as well. PETA is just using the fact that Canada's hosting the Olympics to draw attention to the Seal Hunt.

Sadly, PETA are kinda bitches when it comes to things like that.

Yeah, they don't really care who's doing it. They just want it stopped utterly and completely whether it's Inuit or not. Of course, if we tried to stop it for the Inuit we'd have Human Rights groups down our throats complaining about trying to stamp out a native group's culture. And then of course, if we allowed exception for the Inuit, PETA would start complaining again. It's a no win situation.

And toques, can't forget the toques or they'll never believe us!

It's good to know that there are so many Escapists that can HYUCK HYUCK about the unnecessarily gory death of living beings, regardless of species. Congrats, you are now officially Strong Men.

Done with this thread.

The problem with PETA is they're way too touchy about this stuff they just make people want to kill more cute animals not stop doing it because they're so hilarious in trying to prevent it.

 

[Ciler]

I honestly didn't think Canada would be the kind of country to have a freaking annual Seal Hunt. I'm actually pretty disappointed about that.

Why? There's nothing wrong with hunting seals. I kind of wish that they'd sell the seal meat. I'd like to try some.

But they're soooo cuuuuuute! You can't kill cute animals! PETA says so!

Actually, according to the Penn & Teller episode about PETA, it seems like PETA kills lots and lots of cute animals every year (e.g. dogs and cats that they can't find a home for).

 

[scotth266]

Wow. So essentially it's a shitty time trial Ski Free.

The obstacles don't even HURT you. What the hell is this crap? If you're going to make a Ski Free ripoff, the least you could fucking do is make it as hard as the original. This doesn't even convey the message that well, considering all that the seal clubbers do is slow you down, just like every obstacle in the game. They're no more threatening than the trees or the snowmen.

If kids learned anything from this, it's that seals have really boring sledding competitions where no one gets hurt.

 

[malestrithe]

Great. PETA is at it again. They went after Cooking Mama last year because it was popular. Why didn't they go after Cabella's Dangerous Hunt games. Cooking Mama has you cooking already dead things, but Cabella has you killing them. What you do in Cabella is far worse than what you did in Cooking Mama.

That means I am going to need to buy another game so I can say Fuck Peta. I have Circus Games, Ringling Bros game and the Cooking Mama franchise because PETA declared them evil.

 

[soundoflights]

Ug This seal has been getting clubbed for half an hour WHY DOESN'T IT DIE.

I agree. I have no problem with hunting if it's for food, and every part of the animal is used, but...clubs? This is just barbaric. It's too much unnecessary suffering for the animal. For the first time ever, I think I'm going to have to side with PETA on this.


...though of course, on nothing else. The game is garbage too.

Honestly? As much as I'm against seal clubbing and seal hunting,

Why? Seals are just animals like bears and deers, so long as you make good use of the meat and fur and don't just kill them for no reason i fail to see what the problem is.

Killing for profit. They are not cows you breed or sheep, you are killing wild animals and it may very well lead to extinction.

 

[Hazy]

My seal seems to be possessed by Mr. Hankey.

How he obtained the sled and the hat, is beyond me.

I know but I'm secrelty a nutcase who doesn't want animals to die ever. I'd be vegetarian if I didn't love meat so much. But there's not a lot thta can be done really so I don't let it really bother me.

And as long as the products are useful its mostly alright with me. But if people are skinning animals whilst they're alive (I saw that done, it was horiffic) for fur then those people deserve no worse treatment.

And I'm pretty sure a lot of people taking part in this hunt will be bludgeoning the animals with clubs and other blunt objects for fun.

 

[messy]

The seal sounds like Mr. Hankey from south park.

Also this is nothing on the cooking momma game; that was amazing...
