1/26 Protest the sale of seal fur in NYC, Cross Post to Friends on East Coast

[Guest guest]

****Cross Post Freely**** ANNUAL BABY SEAL SLAUGHTER BEGINS SOON PROTEST SEAL FUR NEW YORK CITY - FIFTH AVENUE SATURDAY, January 26th In a few short weeks, off the eastern coast of Canada, the annual seal slaughter will turn the ice bright red with the blood of murdered innocents. Thousands of baby seals, some just weeks old, will be bludgeoned with hakapics (wooden clubs with sharp metal hooks at the tip) and some will be skinned alive, with their mothers close by, bellowing in fear, anger and frustration. In the past 3 years, Canadian killers have taken the lives of approximately 1,000,000 baby seals. Despite

global public outcry the slaughter will continue in this Spring. To learn more about the annual seal slaughter visit: http://war-online.org/Alert_Seals07.htm http://harpseals.org/ http://www.seashepherd.org/seals/ On Saturday, January 26th, activists will visit the stores of fashion designers who sell seal fur

products. We will let these designers know that they cannot support the massacre of baby seals and still do business on the streets of New York City. At the same time, we will continue our crusade to make it unbearable to wear fur on the sidewalks of New York. We will be moving from location to location, so make sure to dress comfortably and to wear good walking shoes. When: Saturday, January 26, 2008 @ 2:00 pm Where: 724 Fifth Ave (between 56th & 57th Sts.) If late call: 1-646-267-9934 If you are late, call us at: 1-646-267-9934 and we will tell you where we are. You don't need posters, banners or literature...we have all of that (unless of course you have something you want to bring, then by all means bring it along). All you need is your passion and a loud voice to speak up for the animals. In the coming weeks we will be continuing the fight to stop the Canadian seal slaughter before it begins. For notification of future events, send us an e-mail asking to be added to our e-mail action alert list. Write
