"Seal Alert-SA going into Stealth mode"
September 26, 2006

Dear All Cape Fur Seal Supporters,
As you
can see the below article, in my opinion it has taken MCM with all
its bought and paid for scientists less than 100 years to destroy
our entire marine wildlife. If money or greed is the route of all
evil, then lack of it, in the case of MCM, must boil down to
complete stupidity. If this is how they manage their finances, one
can only guess how our wildlife is truly being mismanaged.
Its been somewhat
of a hectic past year for Seal Alert-SA, on the go with seals
24-7-365 days, for 7 years. Not a single days break in-between.
Events lately have and are reaching a critical stage, and I fear
there are some amongst us, that have hidden agendas. Disappointed
to a large extent to what I see, I need to re-evaluate. The
problems for the Cape fur seals could be so easily overcome, but it
seems, the seals biggest problem, is not from overfishing or
fishermen, but the so-called conservationists and scientists hired
to protect them.
I fear it has always
been this way, although billions have been donated to help seals.
The $1 campaign unfortunately is a complete failure, but thank you
to those that did support. Over 600 people signed the petition to
end Namibian Seal Hunt and about 44 letters were received.
I have a real problem
with what has happened in the EU, and it disgusts me that people
still support this type of incompetence. As I no longer know who is
truly Cape fur seals friend or foe. I have decided to stop all
updates and go silent.
The Cape fur seals
future I believe depends upon it. As soon as I have positive news,
I will reported back. Seal Alert-SA feels it is best that nobody
knows what it is up to in the next few months for our results to be
effective, and not continually blocked by hidden agendas.
To those who are true Cape fur seals and all seal supporters, you
have done a magnificent job getting it this far.
Hope you all understand.
For the Seals
