This is probably the last recording you will hear of these amazing seals. This 
seal colony will be decimated by marauding low life people who will start by 
clubbing 90,000 baby seals to death and then start on the adults until they 
disperse. The reason is that this guy who lives like a king in Australia has 
the rights to kill these seals for his fur trade. He is the seal killer Hatem 
Yavuz. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3nWfFqowjQg The seal massacre starts on 
July the 1st. I recorded these sounds back in March of this year (2011) and was 
promptly arrested by the police because they do not want to have the publicity 
that Video and audio will bring. My media was confiscated but I managed to 
switch the cards while the police turned their back on me.There is a huge 
amount of sadness when I listen to this recording and a feeling of 
helplessness. My aim is to get this stopped and make aware to everybody that 
cares that we can stop the murdering of these endangered Fur Seals.
