80 Dolphins Captured in Taiji, Japan, Their Fate Unknown, Please Help Stop the Slaughter

by Ellinorianne

The Whale and Dolphin Conservation Society has footage of 80 dolphisn that were captured at the Cove in Taiji, Japan.

If you are not familiar with the The Cove, it was made famous by the Oscar winning documentary of the same name, starring Ric O'Barry, activist and dolphin expert who has taking a surprising stand on what he thinks we should do about the future slaughters that might be taking place in the cove.

Every year the Japanese residents, beginning on September first, of the small fishing town of Taiji, round up dolphins and some of them are sold to aquariums around the world and the rest are slaughtered and their meat is sold for human consumption.
