“Ya Krill suckin’ Bastard” is now my insult of choice! Thanks, Adam!
As to why it’s awful to kill one thing, but okay to kill another, it brings up the whole cow/horse debate. Kill a cow, we all get a burger, kill a horse and eat it and people put you on the same level as Hitler (who was a vegetarian, btw).
Drew Carey used to ask in his standup routine why catching and killing tuna is okay, but catching and killing dolphins is a mortal sin. Good point, if you ask me.
And baby seals as the main ingredient in Mr. Pibb? Genius!
Horse is eaten here in Iceland heck it was one of the negotiation points before we turned christian 1) we could still secretly worship heathen gods.
2) we could still kill unwanted baby’s from exposure. 3) we could still eat horse meat. and only one of these has been abolished
Horse doesn’t make for good eating. They only have one stomach (which means more toxins get to the meat), and I think they’re stringy? Some cultures eat horse and even use horse milk (usually to make yogurt, I think), but yeah, not Hitler-inducing. (Now, rounding up wild horses to make dog food, that’s pretty bad, still not as bad as Hitler though.) They’re much better for carrying/pulling stuff than eating. As for Tuna vs. Dolphin, it’s a matter of intelligence.
Different animals are different and have different levels of edibility to a single species (us), imagine that!
funny comic but i feel i should put it out there that it is illegal to club baby seals durring the hunt not that animal rights groups know the difference
Do seals suck krill? I thought they lived on fish, and it was the whales who ate krill. If that’s the case, panel 4 would seem to imply that the elderly seals were framed.
Elderly seals are totally adorable. That bug wouldn’t know cute if it clubbed him in the head.
A guy goes into a pub with a baby seal under his arm and says “I’ll have
a JD on the rocks, and a Canadian club for me mate.”

Really? I guess that’s what I get for believing everything I read on the internet. Either way, he was a jerk. Or does that go without saying…?

Great work Adam!

Adam you should make a facebook page where you say funny things and make me happy.
The bearded seal looks so wise and professor-y. He could talk about anything and I’d trust his every word.
“Don’t club me.” *sigh*, you’re right, wise seal.

*LIKE LIKE LIKE*
Two baby-seal comics in one day? I smell a conspiracy!

Sealed for your safety
The old seal in panel 2 looks like he probably knows a good bit about UNIX.
I would absolutely buy a tshirt or tote bag with the second panel on it (preferably sans words).
It might be because they’ll still murder your face in their old age o_o
How could you go around bonking Jamie Hyneman!?
So clubbing baby seals automatically makes me more evil than every Disney villain combined, but they’re the main ingredient in Mr. Pibb…
Can somebody pass me a blunt object and the lyrics sheet to my evil musical number?
