Did you know that dolphins die of stress in captivity?

Did you know that Taiji, Japan is the largest supplier of show dolphins all over the world and that the dolphins that are not selected for the shows are killed for their meat?

The dolphinanium in Taiji, Japan, you can watch and eat dolphins and whales all at the same time?

When the International Whaling Comission banned commercial whaling in 1986, Japan reacted by tripling its killing of dolphins and porpoises.

Every year, 23,000 dolphins and porpoises are killed in Taiji, Japan.

They claim that it is in their culture to hunt dolphins but in truth, majority of their population do not know of this.

JAPAN IS TRYING TO HIDE THE FACT THAT SO MANY DOLPHINS ARE KILLED!

Filming is not allowed at The Cove, Taiji, Japan because they do not want the fact to be out. They know that if the world knows this, they will be stopped.

A lot of the dolphin meat sold in the world is passed off as whale meat because dolphin meat is toxic. It has high levels of mercury, at least 1000 times more than the recommended amount and can cause deformed babies in pregnant women. 

Take a look at the video in the link. The red pool is the blood from the dolphins killed. That one dolphin that you see struggling was speared.

The Japanese government actually tell their fishermen that dolphins are pests because they are depleting the fish in the ocean. Why are they doing that? Because they don't want to listen to the englishman, They are egoistic bastards.

Please sign the petition on facebook and save the dolphins.
