*[Enwl-eng] Demand justice after men violently beat a seal on a beach

[ENWLine]

A group of tourists beat a seal until it lost consciousness for a photo opportunity and then tossed it back into the water to die Sign Now Seals are sweet, puppy-like marine mammals, so who could possibly ever hurt one? Unfortunately, tourists on a beach in Kazakhstan answered that question. When a seal swam close to the shore, a group of men thought this would be the perfect opportunty to force it to take photos with their children. How did they accomplish that? By wading out into the water and beating the poor animal with metal rods until it passed out from the pain and trauma. Once unconscious, the men dragged the seal's limp body back onto the beach. There, children posed with the tortured animal's form for photos and "played" with it. After the ordeal — with the seal still unconscious — the men simply tossed its body back into the Caspian sea, where it may well have died. If it was lucky enough to survive, it almost certainly sustained severe wounds and possibly internal injuries. What happened on this beach is so horrific, it's hard to believe. Yet it's not even the first time that Kazakh authorities have allowed beachgoers to attack defenseless seals who wander nearby. Sign the petition to tell Kazakhstan authorities to finally start protecting the wildlife in their oceans from assaults by heartless people! Thank you for all that you do,   Miranda B. The Care2 Petitions Team P.S. The seal was simply swimming by, and the next thing it knew, it was being beaten senseless by a mob of violent beachgoers. Demand authorities do their jobs to protect innocent wildlife!
