Start a protest in your city. Its actually easier than you think. Here are some tips http://alturl.com/hzmmc Keep this page informed on your progress, so we can open communication channels between groups from the same place.
You can sign online petitions and send mail to celebrities asking them to actively support and promote our initiative. Pamela Anderson, Paul McCartney and Charlize Theron are known to actively protest against the fur industry. Charlize in particular. She comes from South Africa and Namibia is its neighbour. Charlize supports the rhino cause as well as many others. Here is one contact address for her
Charlize Theron:

Oprah is looking for people to interview for her final season.http://tinyurl.com/ydlexry Suggest Francois Hugo from Seal Alert SA who has been at the forefront of this fight for years. Ellen Degeneres http://ellen.warnerbros.com/ is also big into animal welfare. The more people who request it, the greater our chances at getting the exposure we so desperately need.
Contact all the big name movements (and the little ones too), Sea Shepherd, Greenpeace, PETA, Bridget Bardot, WWF, Coalition to Abolish Fur Trade, WSPA, Animal Liberation Front, Vegan Society etc. Inform them that there is not a single animal charity to have an active campaign to protect "The Seals of Nam" Invite them to join this global initiative, where interested parties put aside their differences and work towards the common good. We shall, despite our differences, unite as one in condemnation of these atrocities. March 21 2011 is not only Human Rights Day and Namibian Independence day but ESPECIALLY the day for Cape Fur Seals, "The Seals of Nam" Provide these organizations with a link to this page.http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=142174952503151
As the groups join, they are to please indicate the Name of the Org on the wall, the name of the contact person, city or region and provide a link to their website.

If you do get a response, please post it on this page.
You can also send mails to the Namibian Government. Here is a complete list of their embassies and high commissions and consulates
Tell them you will boycott not only their tourism, but also all Namibian produce and you will actively discourage people from visiting their country if they do not end the cull.
Provide an alternative solution such as large scale eco-tourism, which will not only generate increased wealth, but will also lead to the creation of many jobs in a country desperate for employment.
The SPCA in Namibia have both the legislative power and mandate to end this cull. Not only are they not living up to their name, The Society for PREVENTION of CRUELTY to animals, but they have CONDONED this madness, publicly stating that the violent clubbing of 91 000 seals to death is HUMANE!! I kid you not. Here is a news article http://alturl.com/y8u3g
The Animal Protection Act of 1962 (Namibia) applies to all animals, it governs both domestic animals as well as wildlife. The act clearly states that beating an animal to death is an act of cruelty. This link will take you to the contact page of their website. Please feel free to send them as much hate mail as you wish.http://www.spcawindhoek.org.na/contact.html
