Seal hunting tourist attraction

[Martyr]

Like anything, i doubt that it's illogical.
If there is a population control issue, then this is a good thing. And then it makes sense. Most tourists likely are hunters.

But this really does sound bizarre. I make my living butchering pigs (Which are some of the coolest animals on the face of this earth) and cows (Which are truly beautiful and wonderful creatures). So I can generally take the killing of animals in stride if there's a reason. But this sounds really stupid. There's gotta be a larger picture than I'm being told.
Otherwise, this is the kind of stuff that gives power to maniacs like PETA. Only an idiot would risk giving evidence that people treat animals cruelly by actually treating animals cruelly.
