A note for parents

Sea of Slaughter is Farley Mowat's non-fiction account of the systematic destruction of North American wildlife and indigenous peoples from the 16th century onward. The book contains extensive, graphic descriptions of large-scale animal slaughter, hunting practices, and human violence tied to colonial expansion. While educational and important history, the relentless documentation of suffering makes it unsuitable for younger readers and better suited to older teens and adults interested in environmental history and colonialism.
