The International Day for the Protection of Belek
Belek - cubs of the harp seal - have been hunted for many decades, primarily because of their beautiful fur. It is the demand for this fur, most often dictated by fashionable trends, and not an imperative necessity, that pushes a person towards the destruction of these animals in large numbers. A few years ago, it could be legally sold in Europe, Russia, China and many other countries.
Harp seals are found in the North Atlantic, White, Barents, Kara and Greenland seas.
For eleven months pregnancy, seals carrying the baby, and in the spring, adult females and males climb the ice from the sea for a few weeks so that their offspring appears - charming and defenseless belek.
About two weeks after the birth, while the female feeds with milk, the fur of the baby remains absolutely white. It is because of this fur, annually tens of thousands of belek die, and their murder is very cruel: they are killed to death with iron clubs. For cruelty, barbarism and murder, this industry has no equal. And by the end of the 20th century, the commercial hunt for the harp seal pups put this species of animals on the verge of extinction.
One of the first to speak out against the extermination of the belek was the International Fund for the Protection of Animals IFAW, which attracted wide public attention to this problem. New and new people joined the defenders, who could not be indifferent to the barbaric and senseless trade.
Every year in March, thousands of demonstrations and pickets were organized around the world. Thanks to this vigorous activity, the authorities of many countries of the world were forced to take economic measures that made the harbor fishing unprofitable.
And since 1986, the import and sale of belek fur in the United States, Mexico and European countries was generally completely prohibited. Today in the European Union countries it is even considered a sign of bad taste to appear in public in belek-fur outerwear.
