A lot of people don't realize that seal populations are higher than the ecosystem can sustain in some parts of the arctic. Due to human influences, they have actually become a burden. Having more of a particular animal in an ecosystem isn't always better... so the seal hunt is necessary on some levels.

I don't think any animal rights matter more than human rights, but we are comparing apples to oranges. It's not like we are saying it's ok to club baby humans while protecting seals.
