    thanks for posting those articles, Jaline.

    This excerpt is interesting...

    "I knew that we had to look at the other side of the (coin) to see what was happening," Jomphe said.

    While he doesn't eat meat, and considers himself to be an environmentalist, Jomphe says he always had doubts about animal-protection activists who, for decades, described the seal hunt as a cruel, barbaric ritual.

    Federal officials have long maintained the hunt is well-monitored and sustainable, with a seal population of nearly 6 million."
