seal hunters

Seal hunters are people who hunt seals, typically for their pelts, oil, blubber, or meat.

Commercial seal hunting has historically been an important industry in Arctic and sub-Arctic regions, particularly in Canada, Norway, and Russia.

The practice remains controversial, with animal rights groups opposing it while some Indigenous communities defend it as part of their traditional way of life and livelihood.

Seal hunters in Newfoundland have faced protests for decades.
