While I'm not a fan of using animal hearts for transplants, I'm far more sympathetic to that than to simply using their parts for human vanity consumption. But the seal industry doesn't care. They'll exploit anything to try to save their barbaric trade and, if they can use guilt, even better. Excerpted from the Chronicle-Herald.

In order to offset the loss of the seal product market in Europe, Canada has made a deal with China. Although 40 Chinese animal rights groups have protested, they don't really have any political or financial clout to change anything. I'm not surprised.

Some of the damage was caused by humans who shot, clubbed or threw so-called seal bombs at the mammals. The explosives are tossed into the water to scare away seals from fishing areas.
