PAMELA ANDERSON - ANDERSON ASKS PUTIN FOR HELP IN SEAL SLAUGHTER BAN

ANDERSON ASKS PUTIN FOR HELP IN SEAL SLAUGHTER BAN

PAMELA ANDERSON has written a personal plea to Russian leader VLADIMIR PUTIN, asking the Prime Minister to help her ban the slaughter of baby seals in her native Canada.
Putin was recently applauded by animal lovers all over the world for overseeing a ban on the hunting of young harp seals, and now Anderson has asked him to urge Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper to follow his lead.
Anderson, a longtime animal rights activist and PETA spokesperson, claims the Canadian government will allow seal hunters to brutally beat and skin approximately 338,200 seals this year.
In her letter to Putin, obtained by WENN via PETA, she writes, "The Canadian government has refused to budge on this issue, despite widespread protests and international bans on the trade in baby seal skins.
"I collected thousands of signatures myself and personally delivered the petition to parliament, to no avail. The government is sacrificing not only the seals but also worldwide goodwill by going against the wishes of most Canadians, Europeans, Russians, and others.
"You have been quoted as saying that seal hunting is 'a bloody industry that should have been banned long ago'. I couldn't agree more. Please use your influence with Prime Minister Harper to help us stop the senseless slaughter of baby seals once and for all."
