These pictures were taken last spring outside Makkovik, Labrador. The cold froze the holes in the ice so the seals were unable to get back into the water. I forget the photographers name.
Don't whack me mister human!!!!!
News reports are saying that the annual seal hunt may be delayed or even put off entirely this year.
Thin ice and winds blowing the heavier ice north ward have made it very precarious for the young seals to survive.
The up side of this is we do not have to put up with the usual pro and anti sealing crap that is getting way out of whack [pun intended].
The down side is fishermen who depend on the sealing income for gearing up for other fisheries will surly feel the pinch.

This is not a seal pizza and calzone. Just your usual sauce with pepperoni, two cheeses, peppers, olives.
The baguettes are for the ice climber come avalanche dude.
