The brutal murder, stealing them from the ocean to live a life of captivity. They are not yours to exploit! Japan is a stain on humanity. Selfish greedy people robbing the oceans of beauty, life, and the ability to prosper. At the rate Taiji is killing and stealing Dolphins and whales they will go extinct! Shame on you for supporting this greedy barbaric behavior! Shame! 5 · Yesterday at 04:32 Yamamoto San @Sparrow Patterson: "The brutal murder" - can't murder food or animals. "stealing them" - can't steal what is your own marine resources. "They are not yours to exploit" - They are caught in Japan's territorial waters, they are Japan's marine resources, Japan can do whatever it sees fit. "Selfish..." - you are selfish to impose your beliefs and force people to change their culture and livelihood.. it's none of your business. "At the rate Taiji is killing" - and what rate is that? give me figures, not emotional waffles. "they will go extinct" - bulls**t, quota is 0.2% of the estimated population, while reproduction rate is 2-3%, use your own maths skill to work out if they will go extinct.

LOL... show me one single case of anyone getting sick eating dolphin or whale in Japan. "Mercury filled dolphin meat" - no it is not filled, it contains trace. "Mercury will take you out soon enough" - dolphin fanatics have been wishing this for years, unfortunately for them no one have ever got sick, and you call yourself compassionate? wishing ill health on other people? "FACTS about being compassionate" - fact and reality is that human eat meat, hence animals will be slaughtered. People can love their pet animals, but will happily chomp on the next hamburger. 2 · 23 hrs · Edited Delilah Glover-Delage Sparrow is a bully.

Research shows that some birds such as corvids have intelligence of about the level of human children so you can be proud of your name Sparrow and ignore these ignorant people who resort to cheap playground level insults. But it's their way of rejecting their feelings. No one with any hint of compassion could applaud the kind of torture and butchery that is carried out at Taiji. I expect they've been damaged in childhood but then again, the kind of culture Japan is with its strict conformity means that they have trouble thinking independently or outside of the box. And it means they buy stories like killing dolphins is their culture when it's actually a mid 20th century money-driven activity. Still, it's fun seeing them get wound up on this page! 1 · 3 hrs Suzy Jordan Dear Prime Minister, STOP the cetacean holocaust in your country, you have the power to make it stop!

Below is the attitude from White house. Thank you for signing a petition about organ harvesting in China. The U.S. government opposes illegal or unethical harvesting or trafficking of human organs. We have urged China to cease harvesting organs from executed prisoners and have raised this issue with senior Chinese officials. China's leaders have announced a pledge to abolish the practice of taking human organs for transplant from executed prisoners, although we are aware of continued reports of such practices. We take such allegations very seriously and will continue to monitor the situation and the actions that Chinese authorities take to fulfill this commitment. The Chinese government's human rights practices and treatment of Falun Gong practitioners remain causes for concern. Since 1999, the Secretary of State has designated China as a "Country of Particular Concern" under the International Religious Freedom Act for having engaged in or tolerated particularly severe violations of religious freedom. As reported in the State Department's 2013 Country Report on Human Rights Practices and the 2013 International Religious Freedom Report, the Chinese government's respect for and protection of the right to religious freedom have deteriorated. http://click.mail.whitehouse.gov/...

Please cite examples of Japanese history where Dolphins were sold into captivity to perform tricks for people. Where is that in your tradition?

I didn't ask you to cite your odd eating habits, really go eat a dog! Other people do - so it must be ok. I'd like to understand the captive side of this? Please explain. 16 hrs Sparrow Patterson Good work tho champ! Now do some more on CAPTIVITY - which was what I was talking about. 16 hrs Emmanuel Chanel Huh? We have tradition of dolphin fishery in Taiji. So Taiji dolphin fishery has a god skill to that captivity from their tradition. And so what? Why do we have to get your permission to fish dolphins, huh? Are you an imperialist? Dolphin fishery is never a human rights problem or an environmental problem. 16 hrs Sparrow Patterson Obviously you don't need my permission because you'd never get it & you're still doing it. I think you fail to understand that many people out there feel enclosing Dolphins in concrete tanks, completely unnatural for them, training them to do stupid tricks for dead fish (not the normal diet for said dolphins) is cruel and unusual. That, Emmanuel Chanel, is the real problem. The "fishing" aspect is more of a cover for the lucrative sale of live captive dolphins - 100k or more per captive dolphin. And that is SHAMEFUL! And people around the world DON'T like it! 16 hrs · Edited Emmanuel Chanel Who cares ad populum of you, dolphin freaks like what you want us to care, huh? >The "fishing" aspect is more of a cover for the lucrative sale of live captive dolphins - 100k or more per captive dolphin. We don't have such a quota or such an actual catch number. http://kokushi.job.affrc.go.jp/H25/H25_45.html Even if it's true, out of environmental problem, "And people around the world DON'T like it!" cannot be justice against our dolphin fishery or against whaling. Your discourse is like "The world dislike Jewish people to live. So they should quit to live!" or like "The world dislike gays. So they should quit to be gays.". It's too far from the modern liberal thoughts. Oh, are you such a person? If so, you are completely inadequate to be a jurist. 国際漁業資源の現況 -平成25年度現況- ここでは国際捕鯨委員会(IWC)の分類に従い、小型鯨類を、マッコウクジラ及びトックリクジラを除いた歯鯨類と規定する。IWCは1982年に商業捕鯨モラトリアムを採択し、1987年度漁期を最後に大型鯨類を対象とする全ての商業捕鯨が停止された。一方、小型鯨類はIWCの管轄外であることから、我が国では政府の管理の下に漁業が継続され、現在に至っている。これらの漁業に対し、近年、国内外の過激な環境保護・動物愛護団体等からの軋轢が高まっているが、我が国の方針である鯨類資源の持続的利用を堅持し、さらにIWCにおける商業捕鯨再開に向けた努力を推進していく上でも、小型鯨類を捕獲する現行漁業と、その対象資源を慎重か… kokushi.job.affrc.go.jp 15 hrs Emmanuel Chanel Oh, I forgot to correct one thing. We, Japanese people don't eat dogs. And Chinese people eat dogs. If you don't like eating dogs, as you like. But nobody should interfere dog eating culture including those Chinese people. 15 hrs Sparrow Patterson I knew Japan isn't the dog eating capital of the world, which is why I said "Other people do." Go do something with yourself. I'm entitled to my opinion & obviously you can't change my mind. Stop raping the ocean! 15 hrs · Edited Sparrow Patterson I'm a lawyer btw, not a jurist. 15 hrs Sparrow Patterson So you believe in Taiji taking Dolphins out of the ocean and selling them to marine parks? You promote enslaving sentients - you are a bully who functions under the guise of fishing when in reality the captivity is where the $ is! Go fish for Dolphins - good luck - hope you get what you want. Real men are compassionate toward all creatures. Men like you are lost. Many of the Japanese people agree with this. 15 hrs Yamamoto San @Sparrow Patterson - "The ocean and its contents do not belong to you" - the ocean within 12 miles of a nation belongs to that nation, and all the marine resources within it, fish, mammals, oil etc.. in fact it extend 200 miles to the EEZ. Have you read up the UNCLOS yet? You said you are a lawyer, you should know better. "cite anywhere in tradition or culture of Japanese people where Dolphins were sold into captivity" - Taiji mayor never said captivity was tradition, he said whaling and hunting dolphin is tradition. That aside, every human activity has to start in some point in time, so dolphin captivity trade started in the late 60's, in a few hundred years, it will become tradition, happy? "a cover for the lucrative sale of live captive dolphins" - FYI there are 7-8 other towns hunting dolphins purely for food, Taiji only accounts for 15% of the total catch, so I guess you are happy for the other towns? "my own opinion that eating Dolphins is screwed up" - then dont eat them, no one is forcing you to, dont force others not to. "I'm entitled to my opinion" - correct you are entitled to your opinion, but your imposing of your opinions onto others that is my problem. "I'd like to understand the captive side of this" - any different to human keeping horses, pets, also a form of keeping an animal captive? "And people around the world DON'T like it" - well suck it up buttercup, it's none of your business what Japan do in their own country. There are many things Americans do that I dont like either, but it's none of my business to tell what to do in your own country. "Real men are compassionate toward all creatures" - no real men eat both meats and veggies, and these meats could be cows, pigs, chicken, lamb, whale, dolphin, snail, horse... whatever. 1 · 14 hrs Sparrow Patterson Yamamoto San you only have 22 friends on FB.

Oh... so why don't you kill yourself for not killing bacteria, viruses, and so on by your immune system? It's knowledge in our public primary schools. Don't you know that? I cannot really imagine barbarian ways of thoughts like yours. >Many of the Japanese people agree with this. No, never! For example, Tycoon Tsunayoshi Tokugawa in beginning of Edo Period made Shorui-Awaremi-no-rei (ordinances of animal protection). And that ordinances is well-known as seriously wrong law among us, Japanese people. And because of its repeal, Mitsukuni Tokugawa(Mitsukuni Mito, called 水戸黄門(Mito Koumon)) is so popular that 水戸黄門 was the jidai series run for a long time. Why can you pretend to know how we feel about your views, huh? It's clear that you are really ignorant of Japan.

Sound familiar? Are these just words for everybody else and not you? Or do you just post things like that to mock those whom you judge? 14 hrs Stephen Barnett Let us not forget that dolphins are hunted and consumed at least in 13 countries including the US, Canada and European whaling nations, not just Taiji. Possibly more. Like your US citizens in Alaska eat dolphins, belugas and other small cetaceans, the hunting for human consumption is tradition for a small minority of elderly people in Taiji. Taking the dolphins for captivity is certainly NOT tradition. Both Wakayama Governor and Prime Minister Abe NEVER SAID captivity was tradition. I don't get why Cove Guardians continue to spread such false propaganda to mislead ignorant people. If you did deep research, the history of captivity would be clear. . . Taiji has taken over the function of the USA who used to be the largest hunter and supplier of cetaceans. Your American Orca hunters had taught Futo fishermen how to drive-hunt dolphins on a large scale. Taiji learned the method from Futo. After the drive-hunt was banned in the US, US SeaWorld associations activity purchased dolphins from Japan and the ties spread to Europe. Decades behind, now SeaParks became boom in popularity among people in developing countries like China, Thailand, Vietnam, Turkey, Egypt, Dubai, Mexico. Without irony, US SeaWorld is held accountable for building today's global business in Taiji. US SeaWorld association is still trying to import Orca from Russia secretly. Solomon Islands where people hunt and consume hundreds of dolphins each year is also a big supplier of dolphins for captivity. Who controlls this business? It's WAZA and IMATA. Dolphins dealers from the US and Aspro International support the dolphin hunt. There is no point in blaming the hunters only. Let us not forget that US military also purchased Taiji dolphins and bottlenose dolphins are trained to use them as ''deadly bombs'', let alone the performance for entertainment. Not just those military dolphins, US Navy Sonar will cause the huge crisis that will affect the whole marine population. According to Navy's own calculation, US Navy Sonar will kill 33.5 millions of dolphins, whales and other marine life.

I send the same message to the U.S. Navy, SeaWorld, WAZA & IMATA! I spend my time petitioning them, and working to educate them as well. Obviously people in Taiji are selling the Dolphins - we are disgusted by SeaWorld & the Navy! We do not support them. Obviously the U.S. quit doing this for a reason - citizens didn't like it. Now Japan has taken over the role, we still don't like it! You are right in saying what you did - just realize expressing our disdain for Taiji fisherman is just one cog in a big broken machine.

Once they swim into Japan's territorial waters, they are Japan's marine resources. "the dolphins dont go by their own" - of course they dont, no animal does, that's why you call it a hunt. "they are wiping them out to extinction" - no they are not, taking 0.2% of the population while reproduction rate is 2-3%, use your own maths to work out if that is "wiping" out. 2 · 10 hrs Christopher Ewing so yes, the fishermen are forcing the world's dolphins into their killing cove. and you proved a point, you know about the slaughters over there. 2 · 10 hrs Yamamoto San No animal willingly let themselves be caught, you have to actively hunt, force, catch, trap, snare them, or whatever word you want to use.

Red Cove. So many lives lost, so much sadness. Two drives for one pod. The killing vessels merge the split pod back into one after hours of the torturous drive process. The family swim for their lives with everything that they have, it was not enough to save them from their murder. The pod circled within the cove once the nets had dropped behind them. They endured a living nightmare today. Sea Shepherd Cove Guardians Page (official) added 11 new photos to the album: February 4th, 2015 - Striped Dolphins - Slaughtered — at Taiji Japan A devastating start to the month for the dolphins swimming passed trying to migrate to warmer waters. 3 Red Cove's in 3 days, the dolphins have been hit hard by the relentless greed of the Taiji Killers. Cove Guardian's spotted the drive formation beginning at approximately 8:00am local Japan time. It was not long after that the family became visible ahead of the drive. The striped dolphins fought incredibly hard, the speed in which they swam in a desperate attempt to get away from the killing boats was astounding. . At one point the pod became split into two separate drives as the killers struggled to keep them under their control. After 2 hours of continuous fighting against the boats it was clear that the pod had expended all the energy they could possibly muster. Exhausted and terrified they were pushed into the cove where they were sealed in by the hunters nets. 35-40 adults and juveniles were tethered by their flukes and were literally dragged onto the shore where they were murdered side by side. The water was churned with the thrashing of the dolphins and the blood spilled from their bodies. No survivors were left from today's bloody slaughter, mother's, father's, brother's and sister's now just slabs of meat at the packing plant to be sold and eaten. Those witnessing the livestream today will have been exposed to the true nature of the monsters at work here in Taiji.

This is no different than what you allow to happen to the dolphins of Taiji. They all had families that loved them, the all had freedom, loved life, were tortured, murdered in cold blood. Your lack of empathy for either shows you have no honor, PM Abe. I feel sorry for the families of the two human victims. I feel even more sorry for the dolphins slaughtered almost every day in Taiji. The two humans went overseas willingly. The dolphins were just passing by and were herded viciously into The Cove, manhandled, run over by skiffs, cut, shoved, laughed at, viciously had metal spikes shoved into their backs until they bled internally and into the cove, fighting for every last breath, watching their loved ones being brutally murdered before them, babies, juveniles, mothers, fathers...it doesn't matter to your executioners. You talk of honor PM Abe. You show no honor to these dolphins. Therefore you get no honor. Your executioners laugh as they kill them like they enjoy it, smoke cigarettes while lying on the bodies, these beautiful sentient cetaceans you claim as food, some to to be sold into slavery to perform circus tricks for money...that is your biggest meal ticket, but the rest are murdered in cold blood. SHAME ON YOU, PRIME MINISTER! Shame on you for allowing, getting kickbacks to your government, and the dolphins pay the price for your greed. NO HONOR, JAPAN...NO HONOR!!!

Watch videos on youtube. You should be an Alaska Guardian and monitor your hunting from spring to summer.

I was trying to make a point! I give my voice to these cetaceans being slaughtered all over the world, including the U.S. Right now, the slaughters are going on in Taiji. When they are in the Faroe Islands, I voice opinions there, wherever these animals are being hunted and whoever is hunting them, I try to help them by exposing these slaughters. I agree with you. I am ashamed that the US is exploiting dolphins and orcas, belugas, in captivity...it is abysmal. The military with their sonar experiments. I speak out against them and contact my government officials over that as well. My point to PM Abe was that the ISIS slaughters were no different than the slaughters they allow every day during "hunting season" on these dolphins. My heart is broken for all those human victims that died at the hands of terrorists and equally so for the innocent dolphins that happen to be migrating past the bloody waters of Taiji, Japan. And for the record, I am a voice for the horses and many other animals that have atrocities committed against them. Peace. 4 February at 20:00 Yamada Gaku Taiji fishermans hunt whales to eat, did ISIL hunt someone and eat them? 3 · 4 February at 20:30 Janet Austin-Grimsley Taiji fishermen don't hunt dolphins only for the meat. The big money is in capture of the pretty ones to sell to aquariums all over the world. A captured dolphin can bring $150,000 or more, a dead dolphin only around $400. Dolphin meat is intentionally mislabled in the stores as whale meat to get it sold. Most of the dolphin meat is held in freezers and eventually used for pet food or fertilizer. It is toxic, full of mercury and other contaminates. The Japanese don't like dolphin meat, but will eat whale meat. It is now illegal for the Japanese to hunt whales in the Southern oceans, but PM Abe said they will resume the hunt for the 2015/2016 season despite the rulings. Of course ISIS does not eat the humans. They hold them for monetary ransoms or for trade of one or more of their captured friends and if their demands are not met by their deadlines, they murder their hostages in cold blood. 4 February at 20:43 Anaheim Elec Grimsley-Can't believe ones like you cannot distinguish ISIL terrorists murdered people,and Taiji where people do their job to hunt some animals.Plain stupid of you and you really must feel ashamed of it that you cannot comprehend the differences of the two you reffered to.How would you make to think as such?Education you've got from your kindergarten ti high school? 3 · 4 February at 21:30 Anaheim Elec "mislabeled in the stores as whale meat"it's a lie.Do you have evidence of that?I'm not from Taiji locals however they groyp whales,small type of cetaceans,dolphins etc as whale groups.It's called geirui.Gei means whales,and rui means sort/pattern/type etc.I can assume they eat it as whale.FYI how to distinguish whales and dolphins is a matter of size in Japan,I don't know in other countries though,less than 4meters are dolphins,4meters and up are called whales.So basically it's the same food as to be ready to eat,when available at the stores. 4 · Yesterday at 01:43 · Edited Sea Mammals Taiji is Dolphin-Mafia territory, the shame of japan, the shame of world. Janet has said what the fact is.. point. 1 · Yesterday at 00:20 Yamamoto San @Janet Austin-Grimsley - "a dead dolphin only around $400" - who told you that? are you once of the butcher & know the prices? Just to give you some ideas, this is one of main online retailer of whale/dolphin meat: http://www.simetani.com/b0111.htm, Risso meat retails at around 8000 Yen / kg, or around USD$66/kg, lets say the fishermen wholesale at half that price at USD$33/kg. An average Risso weighs around 450kg, and 40% is bones/internal organs, un-edible meat, each Risso will fetch 450kg x 0.6 x $33/kg = $8910 in meat sale... your bulls**t of $400 is laughable. "intentionally mislabled in the stores as whale meat" - another lie, dolphin & whale meat taste different, their meat texture and color are different, only an idiot would not be able to tell the difference. "Most of the dolphin meat is held in freezers and eventually used for pet food or fertilizer" - quote your source please? "It is toxic, full of mercury" - strange, it's so toxic yet there has not been a single case in history of anyone getting sick eating dolphin or whale... anymore scaremongering you would like to add? "The Japanese don't like dolphin meat" - dolphin meats are consumed by local regions, the people of Taiji and surrounding region sure enjoy them. "It is now illegal for the Japanese to hunt whales in the Southern oceans" - No it's not, ICJ ruling simply say do not use the JARPAII program. Japan can come up with a different program or resume commercial whaling. There is no international law that bans whaling. 3 · Yesterday at 04:17 · Edited Janet Austin-Grimsley Yamamoto San and Anaheim Elec, watch the movie The Cove. I am not going to argue with you over this. I have researched my facts. I would not quote things I did not believe was true. I believe all life is sacred whether dolphin, whale, human, horses, cows, chickens, whatever! Mass slaughter is wrong! If you watch the movie The Cove which won awards and would not have if it was based on lies, you will get a lot of information there. Yes they are activists for these cetaceans. But don't you have the least little bit of compassion for the slaughtering of these dolphins while you go to sea aquariums and watch what is left of their family performing circus tricks for your entertainment, or are your hearts that cold? See the Facebook pages Sea Shepherd Cove Guardians Page (official) and Ric O'Barry's Dolphin Project Visit websites www.seashepherd.org and www.dolphinproject.net There are many other factual sites with the same information, too many to list, but these two are by far two of the most reliable I have found. Do some investigation...don't believe the Japanese unions, mafia and government. They are only in it for the money...especially of the captive dolphins!

What he said is correct. I don't condone the dolphin hunt but there are too many misinformation fabricated by anti-whaling group like Sea Shepherd. Don't believe their false propaganda blindly. Dolphin meat is NOT used for pet food. If you insist so, you have to name the products. 13 hrs Janet Austin-Grimsley Stephen, I found this article. I searched the internet and I found pictures of canned food but because I cannot read the labels which are in Japanese, the pictures have dolphins on them, but I am not sure if they are canned whale and dolphin pet food or people food. The internet is full of articles stating a lot of dolphin meat is used for fertilizer and pet food. One article I found stated what a LOT of other sites say. They cannot make those accusations without facts. These people have been to Taiji, Ric O'Barry is one and he found it on the shelves. If you look under the title "Dolphin Meat" in this article it states it is used for fertilizer and pet food. This is only one article. If you search it on the internet you will find many articles. I am sincerely just an animal lover and I have loved dolphins ever since the Flipper TV show. I am not a hypocrite or psychopath as you previously called me. I simply love ALL animals and humans have the ability to do wrong or right by them. My opinion of this is that it is wrong to kill these dolphins and whales. I feel strongly about it, am very passionate about it and will help fight for them as best as I can. As far as proof it harms people, in the movie The Cove, it shows people that were harmed by the mercury filled meat. Yamamoto San is from Japan and he is going to defend his country. It's just his irate rants are offensive. You can make statements without being offensive. http://www.dolphinmotion.com/home/?pa_id=23 dolphin hunt drive hunt of dolphins, the massacre, the dolphin industrie, dolphin meat, polluted... dolphinmotion.com 7 hrs Janet Austin-Grimsley To Anaheim Elec, if you cannot feel compassion for the brutality of the slaughters of the dolphins, then you will not understand my point. If it were your family that was being murdered as you watched, your child being dragged away to be sold to a life of slavery to perform tricks for food, spinning around in aquariums as entertainment , how would you feel? Your insulting comments were really not worth my time, however, I thought you might be looking for a response. See if this humane to you. The dolphins are driven for miles by high powered boats which are no match for the dolphins, netted into a cove, exhausted, traumatized, wanting to live as much as their human captors, are traveling with their family. They are tethered by their flukes and dragged under the tarps. A metal spike is driven into their backs just behind the blowhole to severe their spinal cords. However, the killer doesn't always succeed the first time and keeps stabbing, hammering the spike until they finally hit the cord. Then they shove a wooden plug into the hole as to not let too much blood go into the cove. If this is tradition, why do they hide the murders under tarps? The dolphins have been documented on video to take as much as 20 minutes to die. That's barbaric and cruel. It is illegal in Japan to kill cows or pigs in the same way so why is this allowed for the dolphins? They are intelligent beings, have been known to save people, however they are regarded as pests because the Japanese feel they are eating all the fish the fishermen could catch. The fishermen net more fish than the dolphins could ever eat to be competitive to the fishermen. This is despicable and millions of people around the world look at Japan with contempt for this. I hate the killing of any animals for food. I do NOT eat animals and the thought of eating the dead rotting flesh of a murdered animal is so repulsive to me. If you have not watched the movie The Cove or done any more investigating about these horrific atrocities Japan and other countries do against the whales and dolphins, then I am at a loss as to how to make you understand how this is wrong.

I'm unbelievable. 1 · 7 hrs Janet Austin-Grimsley Aoi Komori, I believe in what Sea Shepherd was doing. The Japanese were in the Southern Oceans killing whales for "Research", but were selling the whale meat that was processed on the processing ship or mother ship for profit. They were killing over 900 whales just in the Southern Oceans and were not supposed to be killing them for research. Since WAZA or IWC or whoever was not enforcing the laws, Sea Shepherd did their job for them. I watched Whale Wars, I am aware of what happened with Captain Watson, but I still believe in what they were doing was the right thing, to stop the mass slaughter of whales in the southern oceans under a lie that it was for "research". You can take samples from whales without killing them. I have seen it done on other shows before. You don't need to kill over 900 whales for "research". Research for what? To weigh stomach contents? They would kill mother whales and for posterity, would also kill the calf. Horrific, cruel and barbaric! I watched them on Whale Wars harpoon a Minke whale and the whale was rolling in excrutiating pain, blood beyond imagination, no sympathy from the killers as they dragged the poor dead whale onto the mother ship and immediately started dismembering the whale and boxing it up to give to another ship to take to Japan for sale. That is not research. That is killing for profit and it is now illegal to do this in the southern oceans! The Japanese are depleting the oceans of wildlife with these mass murders and I want it stopped! 1 · 4 hrs I'll Be Back [mur-der] Examples Word Origin noun 1.

Red Cove. So many lives lost, so much sadness. Two drives for one pod. The killing vessels merge the split pod back into one after hours of the torturous drive process. The family swim for their lives with everything that they have, it was not enough to save them from their murder. The pod circled within the cove once the nets had dropped behind them. They endured a living nightmare today. Sea Shepherd Cove Guardians Page (official) added 11 new photos to the album: February 4th, 2015 - Striped Dolphins - Slaughtered — at Taiji Japan A devastating start to the month for the dolphins swimming passed trying to migrate to warmer waters. 3 Red Cove's in 3 days, the dolphins have been hit hard by the relentless greed of the Taiji Killers. Cove Guardian's spotted the drive formation beginning at approximately 8:00am local Japan time. It was not long after that the family became visible ahead of the drive. The striped dolphins fought incredibly hard, the speed in which they swam in a desperate attempt to get away from the killing boats was astounding. . At one point the pod became split into two separate drives as the killers struggled to keep them under their control. After 2 hours of continuous fighting against the boats it was clear that the pod had expended all the energy they could possibly muster. Exhausted and terrified they were pushed into the cove where they were sealed in by the hunters nets. 35-40 adults and juveniles were tethered by their flukes and were literally dragged onto the shore where they were murdered side by side. The water was churned with the thrashing of the dolphins and the blood spilled from their bodies. No survivors were left from today's bloody slaughter, mother's, father's, brother's and sister's now just slabs of meat at the packing plant to be sold and eaten. Those witnessing the livestream today will have been exposed to the true nature of the monsters at work here in Taiji.

The Millitary sonar, sonar of the oil industry, fishing nets, loud sounds, humans, strandings, diseases, all this killing hundreds thousands of dolphins and whales in a year. Whales and dolphins are sexually mature from 6-10 years. -and- dolphin babies suckle up to four years at the mother, jung whales and dolphins swim up to 6 years with their mothers. Do the math; 100,000 dolphins and whales are killed in the year, born are 20,000. In about 8-10 years, many species have become extinct. Cetaceans are more intelligent than humans, living 150,000 years longer on earth. Cetaceans have the same family structure as humans. Whoever kills a dolphin which kills a human. The only difference to people is that they do not have hands, feet and the same voice as we have.

Japan have never faced up to its war time past - it is not taught in schools - and it has never apologised for its atrocities in the war. The silly article you posted demonstrates this perfectly.

It is no easy task to look into the eyes of an innocent life and then murder it as it tries to flee, that is if you are not a Taiji dolphin killer. The killers must have felt "big" taking on this innocent family in their hunting boats. This photo was taken just as the pod of Risso's was driven into the mouth of the cove. Completely outnumbered, they did not stand a chance against the ferocity of the boats. They swam hard and fast for their lives but the killers pushed them to breaking point, the only place left to turn was into the shallows of the killing cove. Sea Shepherd Cove Guardians Page (official) added 11 new photos to the album: Risso's Dolphin family murdered.

Whales and dolphins are a part of such resources, and it has been established that the Jomon people began to utilize them as food thousands of years ago.The southern part of Wakayama prefecture has little arable land with many precipitous mountains. Because of this, it has been natural for the local residents to take whales and dolphins which come close to the coast, and utilize them as food. In Japan, we utilize all parts of whales for various purposes not only as food but also as materials to make craft products. Since its beginning, the substance of our whaling has been different from that of other countries which, until petroleum came into use, killed an enormous number of whales for the sole purpose of obtaining whale oil, throwing the meat away into the ocean.For fishermen in Taiji, whaling and dolphin fishery has been their way of making a living. It has been a significant industry and part of the culture of the region which has a geographically harsh environment. In gratitude for the blessings of nature, Taiji people have the custom of regularly holding a memorial service for the whales and dolphins with a feeling of awe and respect for them. Farmers who raise livestock to later kill and eat them are the same. They feel a sense of guilt about killing their livestock and eat their meat with gratitude to nature. Criticizing these activities and inflaming the public through incorrect and wrongful information is just imposing one-sided values on others.

Also, dolphin bones are found from Irie-kaizuka, Inariyama-kaizuka, idogawa-kaizuka etc. Japanese has hunted dolphins since 10000 years ago. Dolphin-hunting is Japanese culture. Why do you say that dolphin-hunt is not culture? It's your lies and ego. 3 February at 23:26 Pauline Giorgi ^^^^ That is what your country tells you, but here is the truth around the world!!!!! Is the killing of dolphins and whales a “cultural or tradition” in Japan? This is another myth perpetrated on the Japanese people and world by the Japanese government. Japan did have some shore-based whaling in the 12th and 13th centuries, but that died out long ago. Commercial whaling did not begin in Japan until the turn of the 19th century, when technology was borrowed from Norway to set up shore stations. There was considerable opposition to the shore stations by local fishermen at the time, because the butchering and processing of the whales polluted local waters. Colleagues with the Elsa Nature Conservancy of Japan conducted research and discovered that the Taiji drive hunts did not begin until 1969, and then because the Taiji Whale Museum wanted to catch some dolphins for their exhibits. There is nothing “traditional” or “ancient” about Japan’s current slaughter of whales and dolphins. 4 February at 02:06 Pauline Giorgi Dolphin-hunting is NOT Japanese culture.

Japanese were made comb and hairpin with whale teeth. 1688, Ihara Saikaku wrote about Whalebone Tori gates in 日本永代蔵; Japan’s Warehouse of Eternity. This is Wakayama Taiji. And, Ukiyoe has many whaling motif. For example, Hokusai, Utamaro, Utagawa etc. etc... Hokusai "千絵の海 五島鯨突" is very famous. It has drawn in around 1830. There are many many proofs in Japan.

Without the means to engage in active whaling, consumption at that time primarily stemmed from stranded whales.[12] Surviving Ainu folklore reveals a long history of whaling[12] and a spiritual association with whales.[13] The earliest records of hand thrown harpoons date back to the 12th century.[14] Inshore whaling in Taiji, Japan Organized whaling Organized open-boat shore whaling began in the 1570s; and continued into the early 20th century.[ 1 · 4 February at 06:09 I'll Be Back Even SS admits: "“The activists from three anti-hunt groups, including the U.S.-based Sea Shepherd Conservation Society, said that although they understand the practice is part of local culture and a tradition..." 1 · 4 February at 06:17 Aoi Komori Pauline Giorgi ; Japanese history is not fake.

Compassion for animals is one thing, I'm also a realist and understand that animals are also slaughtered for human consumption, as well as being food to other animals in the food chain. 2 · 4 February at 02:59 Stephen Barnett You don't like the lamb massacre happening 365 days in your country.

Yamamoto, we will agree to disagree, it would be simpler and alot less heartbreaking to view the world the way you do, however i dont, never will thankfully, and so i will continue to be a voice along with many many others for the Taiji Dolphins, and all cetaceans that are being slaughtered needlessly.

Chief Cabinet Secretary Yoshihide Suga told reporters at a news conference Monday that marine mammals including dolphins were "very important water resources." "Dolphin fishing is one of traditional fishing forms of our country and is carried out appropriately in accordance with the law. Dolphin is not covered by the International Whaling Commission control and it's controlled under responsibility of each country." Taiji mayor Kazutaka Sangen echoed the sentiments. "We have fishermen in our community and they are exercising their fishing rights," he said. "We feel that we need to protect our residents against the criticisms." He accused the Sea Shepherd of using the issue of dolphin hunting to raise funds and attract attention. The Sea Shepherd Conservation Society has been live-streaming video of events in the cove and posting frequent updates on Twitter. The Wakayama Prefectural Government, where Taiji is located, gives an annual "catching quota." This year, the government allows for the hunting of 2,026 small porpoises and dolphins (557 are for bottlenose dolphins)." 1 · 4 February at 06:22 Pauline Giorgi It's not traditional, we already proved that to you, Arnold.

Regular dolphin drive hunts date back only 42 years to 1969 when pilot whales were captured on a large scale for display at the Taiji Whale Museum. Currently only 8.5% of the people in the town are employed in the fisheries and only about 100 people at the most depend on whaling or whaling-related activities for their livelihood. Historical records and demographic data do not support the contention that “Taiji is a ‘Whaling Town’ that cannot survive without whaling.” 1 · 4 February at 10:51 I'll Be Back YOU are asking ME if I can read? Sugar plum, compared to me you're a mental microbe. Japanese open-boat whaling Because of some evidence of whaling found such as hand harpoons and porpoise skulls in burial mounds, hunting of cetaceans possibly began in the Jōmon period (10,000-300 BC) according to The Institute of Cetacean Research.[citation needed] The oldest written mention of whaling in Japanese records is from Kojiki, the oldest Japanese historical book written in the 7th century AD. In this book whale meat was eaten by Emperor Jimmu. In Man'yōshū, the oldest anthology of poems in the 8th century, the word "Whaling" (いさなとり) was frequently used in depicting the ocean or beaches. One of the first records of whaling by the use of harpoons are from the 1570s at Morosaki, a bay attached to Ise Bay. This method of whaling, known as the harpoon method (tsukitori-ho) spread to Kii (before 1606), Shikoku (1624), northern Kyushu (1630s), and Nagato (around 1672). Kakuemon Wada, later known as Kakuemon Taiji, was said to have invented net whaling, or the net method (amitori-ho) sometime between 1675 and 1677. This method soon spread to Shikoku (1681) and northern Kyushu (1684) Using the techniques developed by Taiji, the Japanese mainly hunted four species of whale, the North Pacific right (Semi-Kujira), the humpback (Zato-Kujira), the fin (Nagasu-Kujira), and the gray whale (Ko-Kujira or Koku-Kujira). They also caught the occasional blue (Shiro Nagasu-Kujira), sperm (Makko-Kujira), or sei/Bryde's whale (Iwashi-Kujira). Whaling has been frequently mentioned in Japanese historical texts.[31] Whaling history (鯨史稿), Seijun Ohtsuki, 1808.[32] Whaling Picture Scroll (鯨絵巻), Jinemon Ikushima, 1665.[33] Whale Hunt Picture Scroll (捕鯨絵巻), Eikin Hangaya, 1666.[34] Ogawajima Whaling Wars (小川島鯨鯢合戦), Unknown, 1667.[35] In 1853, the US naval officer Matthew Perry forced open Japan's doors to the world. One of the purposes of this was to gain access to ports for the American whaling fleet in the north-west Pacific Ocean. The traditional whaling was eventually replaced in the late 19th century and early 20th century with modern methods. 1 · 4 February at 11:41 Pauline Giorgi Cause you say so, Arnold??? Umm, No.. you're fiction of your own imagination!!! 1 · 4 February at 11:50 · Edited Beejay Cody @IBB I am not sugar plum to you I have a name and compared to me YOU ARE mental. 4 February at 14:33 Beejay Cody This is how arrogant the Japanese government are...."On March 31, 2014 the ICJ ruled that "Japan must revoke any extant authorization, permit or licence to kill, take or treat whales" in the Southern Ocean Whale Sanctuary and refrain from granting any further permits.[131] Following that ruling, Japan proposed to launch a "reviewed" research hunt. In response, the IWC voted and concluded in 18 September 2014 that "Japan should abide by an International Court of Justice ruling", but Japanese officials have vowed to continue whale hunting in the Antarctic in 2015". 1 · 4 February at 14:52 Pauline Giorgi Sad they think they can do whatever they want... their greed has made them blind to the atrocities and hungry for more greed!! 4 February at 15:22 Yamamoto San @Beejay Cody - the ICJ ruling simply say do not use JARPAII program in the southern ocean. Japan can can up with a different program, or resume commercial whaling, which they are planning to do. There is no international law that bans whaling. 11 hrs Mei Yumi I pray Jordan pilot First Liutenant Moaz al-Kassasbeh’s soul may rest in peace.

Whales and dolphins are a part of such resources, and it has been established that the Jomon people began to utilize them as food thousands of years ago.The southern part of Wakayama prefecture has little arable land with many precipitous mountains. Because of this, it has been natural for the local residents to take whales and dolphins which come close to the coast, and utilize them as food. In Japan, we utilize all parts of whales for various purposes not only as food but also as materials to make craft products. Since its beginning, the substance of our whaling has been different from that of other countries which, until petroleum came into use, killed an enormous number of whales for the sole purpose of obtaining whale oil, throwing the meat away into the ocean.For fishermen in Taiji, whaling and dolphin fishery has been their way of making a living. It has been a significant industry and part of the culture of the region which has a geographically harsh environment. In gratitude for the blessings of nature, Taiji people have the custom of regularly holding a memorial service for the whales and dolphins with a feeling of awe and respect for them. Farmers who raise livestock to later kill and eat them are the same. They feel a sense of guilt about killing their livestock and eat their meat with gratitude to nature. Criticizing these activities and inflaming the public through incorrect and wrongful information is just imposing one-sided values on others.

It is no easy task to look into the eyes of an innocent life and then murder it as it tries to flee, that is if you are not a Taiji dolphin killer. The killers must have felt "big" taking on this innocent family in their hunting boats. This photo was taken just as the pod of Risso's was driven into the mouth of the cove. Completely outnumbered, they did not stand a chance against the ferocity of the boats. They swam hard and fast for their lives but the killers pushed them to breaking point, the only place left to turn was into the shallows of the killing cove. Sea Shepherd Cove Guardians Page (official) added 11 new photos to the album: Risso's Dolphin family murdered. Februrary 3rd, 2015 — at Taiji Japan This album is in memory of the the family of 8 Risso's dolphins that lost their lives today in Taiji. They did not die in silence, the world was watching through the lense of the Cove Guardian's camera. We will stop this senseless killing. We are relentless and we will never give up as long as this continues. Shame on you Taiji, shame on you Japan. These lives were not yours to take! ‪#‎tweet4Taiji‬ ‪#‎OpInfinitePatience‬ 3 · 3 February at 00:03 Toshimasa Torimitsu ウシはいいの?ブタはいいの?ニワトリはいいの?変質狂のように粘着してくるテロリスト気持ち悪いんですけど。 2 · 3 February at 00:10 Dianna Tregenza Cattle, pigs and chicken are domesticated and bred for consumption.......Dolphins are wild migratory animals. you have no idea what damage you are doing to the wild population or the gene pool by this systematic slaughter. you are wiping out millions of years of evolution. And for what....excess meat you don't eat and ends up in pet food? These animals belong to the world and the world has its eyes on you. 2 · 3 February at 00:20 Yamamoto San @Dianna Tregenza - Sustainable hunting is better for the environment. Dolphins are as free range as you can get, they live a life of complete freedom until the day they are caught. No farming lands are required, no water, irrigation, electricity are required to farm the dolphins, nature breeds them. "you have no idea what damage" - they have more ideas than you. Taiji has been whaling and hunting dolphins for centuries, obviously they are doing it sustainably since dolphins are still around, they are finding pods almost every day. Can you find dolphins every day off the coast of the UK? "you are wiping out" - slaughtering of 0.2% of the population can hardly be seen as "wiping" out, get your facts straight. "excess meat you don't eat" - who told you that? you have believed too many lies from anti-dolphin hunt groups, open you eyes and get the stories and facts from the other side. "These animals belong to the world" - the moment they swim into Japan's territorial waters, they are Japan's marine resources. "the world has its eyes on you" - no it doesnt, only a small minority of dolphin fanatics, scattered around the world. 6 · 3 February at 01:35 I'll Be Back https://www.activistfacts.com/.../347-sea-shepherd.../ Sea Shepherd Conservation Society | Activist Facts “We’re not a protest organization, we’re a... activistfacts.com 3 February at 06:24 I'll Be Back "Cattle, pigs and chicken are domesticated and bred for consumption.......Dolphins are wild migratory animals.

They never have enough. And they seem to get a thrill doing it. It is not just a job to feed their family. They seem get a thrill from it. you can see the evin in their eyes. 2 · 3 February at 18:43 Yamamoto San How do you know they get a thrill? have you been out on the hunt with them? 2 · 3 February at 19:29 Dianna Tregenza Yamamoto we have seen the live feeds that show them deliberately running over Dolphins were their outboard engines, we have seen them laughing in the water whilst wrestling the Dolphins for slaughter, we have seen them joking whilst they drag the Dolphins by the tail into the killing cove. I can't believe their joviality stops when they ram the metal spikes into the blowhole and watch the Dolphins take up to 25 minutes to die. 1 · 4 February at 00:07 Dianna Tregenza Tell me none of this happens Yamamoto and I will listen to you xxx https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=nNsdZ6CgWzE What Happens To Dolphins In Taiji? Honoring The Victims of... youtube.com 4 February at 00:58 Yamamoto San I do not deny the dolphin hunt is taking place, that's how you hunt dolphins. I can find plenty of videos of similar things happening to cows, where they are herded, pushed onto conveyor belts, then either throat slashed or bolted on the head. Similar things except that happen on land instead of water. Why dolphins get the special treatment? 3 · 4 February at 01:48 Yamamoto San @Dianna Tregenza - "Dolphins take up to 25 minutes to die." - They take on average 5 secs... http://www.cypress.ne.jp/jf-taiji/geiruihosatu.pdf 2 · 4 February at 01:50 Dianna Tregenza Because they are wild, not bred for human consumption, livestock do not have the same intelligence levels as cetaceans nor are they run over by quad bikes. Bolts to the head or slashing the throats are immediate deaths. 5 seconds?! Sorry but that really is BS properganda watch the video I posted. Massive scientific revelations about how Dolphins communicate, call each other names, have life long bonds to their families have been discovered in even the last decade and yet Japan refuses to keep up and stay with its "traditions". That's why ALL cetaceans should get special treatment. Yamamoto, I have looked as this issue from all sides, including interviews with Japanese fishermen and their families, I have looked at radical animal activists point of view too of which I am not. I have looked at the slaughterhouses in my own country and they are far from perfect ..... They are also far from the horror that unfolds during these drive hunts in Taiji. The YouTube film I posted gives me all the answers I need and I will use my voice to stand against it. I respect your views, I just don't agree with them nor do thousands of others....I believe that Tim from the Japanese Embassy in London is currently off sick with stress from the amount of complaints against these hunts. I would also like to thank you, unlike some here for not taking your arguments to a personal level....at least you know how to debate a subject fully. I hate the actions of Japan but I do not hate Japan or its people not even the Taiji fishermen - I just hate what they do. I am deeply saddened by the death of Kenji Goto and the Jordanian man.....ISIS a shames all humanity. 4 February at 02:10 I'll Be Back " Because they are wild" So are fish. What about lobsters, clams, squid. and all the other food that comes from the ocean. So are deer and related animals that are hunted. So are game birds. So are any wild animal that is hunted.

Gerard - "Inuits who live in Ice block homes and kill with bow to subsidize" - do you even research what is happening in your own country? Alaskan native hunt with exploding harpoons, much like the Japanese/Norwegian whalers do. They tether & drag the whale by the fluke, just like Taiji fishermen tether the dolphins. They cut up the whale on the beach and red blood is everywhere, just like Taiji dolphin slaughter.

Did Abe give you more money so you can talk agains all off us , you truly trust that Japan is telling the truth about dolphin meat they lie to all Japanese 3 February at 23:35 Yamamoto San At least I put an effort to learn both sides of the story, I do my personal research to visit Taiji and learn about their side of the story, I talked to the locals, not much I can say about you where you rely solely on one-sided biased information from Sea Shepherd or other anti-dolphin hunt groups. I dont put Australia down, I simply state the practices in each country to highlight your hypocrisies. I am fascinated and love Kangaroos, I was surprised to learn that Australian hunt and eat Kangaroos. But I'm in no position to tell Australia what to do, you do. "why you live in our country" - I'm in Australia since certain company cannot find the people in Australia with my unique skill, so I'm hired to do that job. 2 · 4 February at 02:05 Sarah E. Gerard Kangaroo aren't self aware LOL 4 February at 07:56 Marijana Stokes I admit that Australia hunts Kangaroos & eat them I don't but all aboriginals eat kangas that was they staple diet for century's as well as turtles & dugongs ,whenever I go bush I take lots off food for kangaroos as it's been drought & iff I can I help them I love them ,all people what're I go in outback look after them lave water ' give them scraps off vegetables , travel inland off Australia go to small outback towns see life for what it is you might be surprised with people , it's eye opening than trash talk ,please Yamamoto Sam take a trip trough Australia trough inland see real life in Australian out back 4 February at 15:07 Yamamoto San "Kangaroo aren't self aware" - but they sure do feel fear and pain, they are also a living being. So what is your intelligence threshold for an animal to be slaughtered? 4 February at 16:24 Marijana Stokes Lot off people eat meat that is true all creatures should be treated with high regard living free life's iff they for food they still should be let to be free & happy life's , no animal is to be manhandled abused in any way , death should be fast & as pain free as possible , this excessive killing is wrong loot off meat is thrown away as waste , 4 February at 16:36 Yamamoto San Marijana, I was in the Australian Army Reserve for many years, survival in the bush is second nature to me, I'm a volunteer with the SES and have done many animal rescues. I do a lot of bush walking when younger, I have been to many outback towns... Dubbo, Bourke, Parkes, Coonabarabran, Mt Isa, the Snowy mountains etc.., I have the pleasure to witness the beautiful nature and wildlife of Australia, chance encounters with the massive red kangaroos. 1 · 4 February at 16:40 Yamamoto San @Marijana - " if they for food they still should be let to be free & happy life" - dolphins live a life of complete freedom until the day they are caught. Can you say the same for caged farm animals? "no animal is to be manhandled abused in any way" - manhandle process is unavoidable, you need to herd, position animals in preparation for the slaughter. "death should be fast & as pain free" - the adopted pith method from Faroe kills on average within 5 secs. Sure there may be mistake & misses which cause prolonged death, this happens in any slaughter method. Dolphin activists selectively chose only the mistake to portray the slaughter, I bet you they dont show the other 99% of the slaughters which happened quickly. "meat is thrown away as waste" - again not sure where you get this fact from? 4 February at 17:14 Suzy Jordan Prime Minister, ENOUGH KILLING! Your freezers are full, you have plenty of poison meat for your people, end the hunt NOW!

So Maybe say part of the world YO MAMA. and Arnold 1 · 4 February at 05:33 Marijana Stokes Taiji fisherman & any associated with slaughter & captivity off dolphins are people with no heart no soul no honour people living on blood money police & government all living on blood money your turn will come 4 · 3 February at 05:13 Yamamoto San Why dont you stop all the heartless, souless, no honour slaughterhouse workers and butchers, the people living on blood money in Australia first, then maybe you might have some moral grounds to tell Japan what to do 2 · 3 February at 06:19 Brenton Lewis Slaughterhouses in Australia have been closed down when cruelty is exposed. Not to mention that fact is disengenious 1 · 3 February at 16:37 Brenton Lewis That should be disingenuous. The fact that Australia is working to stop cruelty including the dugong and turtle horror gives us the moral edge. 1 · 3 February at 16:46 Yamamoto San Brenton, regardless of slaughter methods used, the question is that is Australia still slaughtering animals? as long as your respective country continue to slaughter animal, you are in no position to tell others not to, why do you think all other countries leaders have been quiet about this? not a single word from Obama, Cameron, Abbott, etc.. 1 · 3 February at 19:34 Brenton Lewis there can be no "regardless of slaughter methods", humane killing is the only way. To suggest anything other than that is morally bankrupt and has no place in Australia, Japan or anywhere else. Indeed no word from Obama, but Kennedy spoke, No word from Cameron, but the ambassador spoke, no word from Abbott, but the environment minister spoke. Do you believe they did not speak on behalf on their governments? Not quite the universal approval or acquiescence you suggest. 3 February at 20:59 Yamamoto San There is no such thing as humane killing, you would be naive to think so. Kennedy spoke once, maybe she stepped out of line, hence has been muffled ever since. They may speak, but they know their legal boundaries, they cannot interfere with any countries domestic affairs, as much as I can't dictate American gun laws (I loath guns), or I can't tell the Canadian what to do with the Seal hunts 2 · 3 February at 22:13 Marijana Stokes Yamamoto San why don't you go back to. Japan since you hate Australia you live here iff it was better in Japan what are you doing living in Australia 3 February at 23:27 Yamamoto San "what are you doing living in Australia" - certain company cannot find the people in Australia with my unique skill, so I'm hired to do that job. Dont worry I travel globally constantly, so I dont spent all my time in Australia. 2 · 4 February at 02:07 Brenton Lewis Marijana, I may disagree with Yamamoto San and he with me but he has been respectful in that disagreement. I don't think telling him to leave Australia adds anything to the discussion. I happen to think Australia is a great place to live even with our flaws and whatever of our disagreement, I hope he does as well. 1 · 4 February at 03:13 Marijana Stokes He picks on Australia all the time we not perfect but he should respect the fact that this country is doing it's best .I know that every country has problems , but every time we say about Taiji scum he tells us how horrid our country is . I was not borne in this country but this country has given great life to many so I will defend this country Brenton Lewis . hiding behind tradition is not right & even by Japanese law what these people are doing is against the law the only reason the government does not stop it as they greedy so capture & slavery pays well , also I do write to my congress about loot off issues which are not right .do if Yamamoto San wants to protect what is wrong on all levels morally .these are crimes against humanity against earth iff this does not stop all over the world our grandchildren will inherit empty sick earth, I really hope that people look to the future money want save the humanity greed will only destroy everything .so excuse that it's ok for fisherman to do what they do as it's worse in our slaughter houses , 4 February at 04:57 Yamamoto San I pick examples on Australia because I know it well, after living and working in Australia for over 25 years. Unlike you I only attempt to make comments on facts and what I understand well, I do not make assumptions or quote half-baked facts. 2 · 4 February at 06:31 Brenton Lewis Marijana, I too defend this country, I am immensely proud of our contribution and equally aware of our shortcomings. I too attempt to make comments on what I understand well and as my whole background and life has been an academic, researcher and clinician in the mental health area I say unequivocally what happens in Tiaji is wanton cruelty and pathological. To say it is legal and therefore right is to miss the point entirely. In saying that I will never agree with Yamamoto san we see this through a different prism. I still believe however we should deal on issues not personal attacks. 1 · 4 February at 13:34 Marijana Stokes That is what I'm trying to do I only attack when people attack me we all people should work together & stop all this killing & distraction in every country . On this site it's to stop Taiji & Japan from dolphin & whale slaughter other sites for other world issues , I have Japanese friends that are against what is happening so no not all Japanese are same but to attack me personally Brenton Lewis to me is not on I have been called stupid I have been called ignorant Bosnian idiot , any person that goes to that is asking for what they get, I see my faults I'm honest to a core one off rare humans but I will not be insulted by another no will I let them insult my country , yes we have problems in this & every country so let's all fight for what is right so that our children's children have future 4 February at 15:22 · Edited Brenton Lewis When did I attack you? 1 · 4 February at 15:35 Marijana Stokes Brenton Lewis no you did not you a a gentleman but our friend Jamamoto has in past as well as other friend off his I'm so sorry iff it sounded like I was attacking you , I apologise please accept my apology 4 February at 15:38 Brenton Lewis No problem, I misunderstood. Just remember that Yamamoto san himself said in an earlier post, when people resort to name calling they have run out of ideas to defend their position, so ignore the nasty name calling and stand up for what you believe. 4 February at 16:59 Kelly Wallace https://www.facebook.com/media/set/... It is no easy task to look into the eyes of an innocent life and then murder it as it tries to flee, that is if you are not a Taiji dolphin killer. The killers must have felt "big" taking on this innocent family in their hunting boats. This photo was taken just as the pod of Risso's was driven into the mouth of the cove. Completely outnumbered, they did not stand a chance against the ferocity of the boats. They swam hard and fast for their lives but the killers pushed them to breaking point, the only place left to turn was into the shallows of the killing cove. Sea Shepherd Cove Guardians Page (official) added 11 new photos to the album: Risso's Dolphin family murdered. Februrary 3rd, 2015 — at Taiji Japan This album is in memory of the the family of 8 Risso's dolphins that lost their lives today in Taiji. They did not die in silence, the world was watching through the lense of the Cove Guardian's camera. We will stop this senseless killing. We are relentless and we will never give up as long as this continues. Shame on you Taiji, shame on you Japan.

Kangaroo DNA is also very close to humans and smarter than you. 1 · 4 February at 20:08 Patricia Banks I agree. Trade embargos and sanctions against Japan!!! The government endorses and supports its whaling program and the dolphin drives in Taiji!!! 8 · 3 February at 07:46 Dan Drexler Also trade embargoes for America for its whaling programs ? 1 · 3 February at 08:24 Stephen Barnett Your US citizens also hunt and eat dolphins, whales and belugas from spring to summer. US navy kills dolphins all over the world. Where is the protest? 1 · 3 February at 14:05 Patricia Banks We have a VERY few Native people up on the Northwest coast that hunt some whales but it is certainly nowhere near the massive scale that tbe Japanese consume and slaughter them . Most people in the U.S. neither hunt or consume whale or dolphin meat. There are laws here against it. 1 · 3 February at 14:24 Stephen Barnett Taiji and other whaling towns are also small minority of people out of 127 millions of population but you bash the entire country. Hypocritical double-standard. Do you even know that Norway has been hunting more whales than Japan for the last 4 years? But Japan and Norway don't hunt endangered bowhead and humpback whales unlike the USA. Greenpeace condemned your whaling program, too. 3 February at 14:37 Patricia Banks I am against all whaling anywhere and I do my share of protesting, e-mailing and signing petitions in this country too. There is no place anywhere on earth to justify whaling in this day and age. If other countries think that setting trade sanctions against the U.S. would stop them from harming or exploiting cetaceans, I would say go for it. I have written and protested against the government here on many issues affecting cetacean rights. 2 · 3 February at 14:42 Yamamoto San @Patricia Banks - "We have a VERY few Native people" - yes but they hunt those huge bowhead whales, in terms of tonnage, they killed more than Japan whale/dolphin combined 2 · 3 February at 15:03 Patricia Banks And I am not condoning it. I think ALL whaling should cease. But I also think you are mistaken about them killing more than the Japanese do. 2 · 3 February at 15:08 Pauline Giorgi Taiji monsters are serial killers!! 1 · 3 February at 18:39 Yamamoto San @Patricia Banks - Alaska native hunt bowhead whales, each weighing 75 tons. Last season Alaska killed 57 whales, total 4,275 tons to feed 10,000 people, around 427.5kg/person. Taiji killed 849 dolphins last season, each dolphin average 300kg, total 255 tons to feed 3450 people, around 74kg/person... figures are surprising clear isnt? numbers dont lie. 2 · 3 February at 20:23 Patricia Banks Except the people there are not eating much of the whale and dolphin meat. It is piling up in a warehouse. That hardly justifies the amount of animals that are being slaughtered in Taiji. Maybe the tonnage is greater in Alaska but not the actual number of animals being killed when you talk about the numbers of slaughters in the dolphin drive. Anyway, the big money maker there is all the ones captured for the slave trade. I think hunting should be banned in Alaska as, well as everywhere else. I have written to the government here as well as signed petitions. So, go ahead and talk numbers.....I am against all of it. NONE of it is justified. 3 February at 20:34 · Edited Patricia Banks And, I would like to add that it is a FACT that 75% of the whale meat in Japan from the hunt 2 years ago is still sitting in a warehouse because no one wants to buy it. So much for feeding the people. 1 · 3 February at 20:40 · Edited Yamamoto San "Except the people there are not eating much" - not sure where you are getting this fact from? have you been to Taiji and know this for sure or are you relying on the propaganda from anti-dolphin groups? "whale meat in Japan from the hunt 2 years ago is still sitting in a warehouse" - all countries stockpile food for security purposes. Due to its low food self-sufficiency rate, around 40%, Japan relies on stockpiling to secure a stable food supply, at the moment Japan has 1.2 million ton of seafood stockpiled, which include 5000 tons of whale meat. "no one wants to buy it" - again check your facts again. I was in Tokyo last week, went to one of the many whale specialty restaurant in Shinjuku for dinner, the restaurant was packed with people and it required advance booking. I took pictures of the menu, dinner & the restaurant entrance, I made it public on my FB page so you can see it if you wish. 2 · 3 February at 20:48 Patricia Banks That does not make it acceptable......anywhere. 3 February at 20:51 Yamamoto San @Patricia Banks - "I think hunting should be banned in Alaska" - I suggest you go and live in Alaska for 6 months, especially where native Americans live, not the big cities, see if you can survive on a vegan diet. 2 · 3 February at 20:51 Patricia Banks Well, since I DO live on a vegan diet, your point is not valid with me. 3 February at 20:52 Yamamoto San "That does not make it acceptable" - What's so not acceptable about eating? 2 · 3 February at 20:53 Patricia Banks Eating the flesh of any animal is not acceptable to me. I don't want another being to have to die so that I can eat. Just my personal philosophy. And there ARE other meat sources that are specifically farmed to feed people.....there is no need for anyone to have to hunt whales and dolphins anymore. 1 · 3 February at 20:56 Yamamoto San @Patricia Banks - "I DO live on a vegan diet" - I'm sure you will not be able to do so in the arctic circle where Alaskan natives live. "Eating the flesh of any animal is not acceptable to me" - That's your lifestyle choice, dont impose your belief onto others "Just my personal philosophy" - exactly so, your personal opinion, so dont impose your opinion onto others. "there ARE other meat sources" - why are you ok to kill other animals? "specifically farmed" - farming is cruel, animals locked in cages their entire life, also bad for the environment, up to 25% of greenhouse gases are produced from cattle farming, and greenhouse gases will be the biggest killer of ocean lives. Dolphins and whales are as free range as you can get, they enjoy a life of complete freedom until the day they are caught. "there is no need for anyone to have to hunt whales and dolphins anymore" - that's your opinion, obviously Japan and many whaling nations do not agree with you. 2 · 3 February at 21:21 · Edited Patricia Banks Yamamoto, I do believe that I stated in an earlier comment that my lifestyle was my personal choice.....I do not impose it on anyone. You should really try reading better so you don't look foolish. 1 · 3 February at 23:51 Marijana Stokes Yamamoto Sam thinks he is a big man you see he is like most ignorant people only cares about money statues & him self , don't care about the future off the world does he they stock pile food for. 4-5 hears after they still will perish as they want be no more in nature to tape & pillage as they have done it all & froze if 1 · 3 February at 23:52 Patricia Banks I do have the freedom to state my opinion just as you do. ALL opinions come from a personal perspective. 1 · 3 February at 23:52 Yamamoto San @Patricia Banks - "I do not impose it on anyone" - really? one of your post you said you signed petitions, wrote to government to ban whaling in Alaska, in a way if by any slim chance you get it banned, you are forcing the Alaskan native to change their livelihood, lifestyle and eating habit... If that is not imposing your belief, I dont know what is. 2 · 4 February at 02:15 Patricia Banks Many cultures have changed their beliefs to keep up with the times. Especially if their practices are archaic and not sensible in the modern age. It is not at all uncommon.

It seems like it would get old for those ole fishermen to bring those stuffed dolphins in every day. Or maybe that is what Hollywood is doing just because they hate a little village called Taiji that bad. haha. there are so many other places to hate and that make a movie and just make crap up that isn't real. How dare them. I just cannot believe they would do that. I hope it is not Sony haha. 2 · 4 February at 18:39 Yamamoto San Many of the recent blockbusters have been made by Sony, I hope many of those calling for boycott have stopped watching movies too 2 · 4 February at 19:40 Anne Schmidt Yamamoto, you can't be serious, can you ??!!

Knowing the truth and denying it, is the worst crime of mankind, and ignorance will ruin our planet one day.... 1 · 19 hrs Maria Grazia Amenta Stop stop stop japan! 4 · 3 February at 09:19 Lynn Lawrence Why would the Japan fishery find anything wrong. They are being paid .off.with blood money. You ha have housed that brick wall line till.it has lost its flare. . They can put cameras in those buildings. But there are guards to keep anyone from.seeing those dolphins from being tortured and killed. The world knows.. 1 · 3 February at 20:05 Dan Drexler No different then our slaughterhouses But better for the planet ( free range is better then most vegan meal for the plant ) 1 · 3 February at 20:33 Ondine Angarola STOP THE TAIJI-TERRORISTS. Stop ALL slaughter. You are not above the law. It's WORSE for the planet. They are raping the ocean and throwing off the eco-balance. They are KILLING OUR ocean with radiation from their nuclear plant that STILL leaks after the Tsunami. STOP THE ECOTERRORISTS. 2 · 3 February at 21:24 Yamamoto San They are not above the law, it's legal in Japan 1 · 3 February at 22:07 Marijana Stokes Wheel go back to Japan iff you think it's that great what are you doing living in Australia 2 · 4 February at 01:52 Lynn Lawrence Yeah right.

Not able to edit. 3 February at 20:07 Marijana Stokes Japan is committing crime against humanity against nature against they own people by allowing slaughter & capture off dolphins for blood money , your government does not care about environment only money iff they did they would fix Fukushima , they lying to they own people so why you think they would say the truth to rest off the world. People with no honour are all Taiji people police coast guard & politicians including the president all take cut in blood money , 2 · 4 February at 01:50 · Edited Yamamoto San "the president all take cut in blood money" - I think you better quote your sources on this 3 · 4 February at 02:19 Stephen Barnett Of course, this ignorant Bosnian can't quote her sources because her comments are all lies and bullsh*t. 2 · 4 February at 03:04 Marijana Stokes Stephan Barnet at least I don't pretend to be a what I'm not your shamed by you real name so you use a western name . Use your true Japanese name . You only know how to insult people you scum from now on I won't bother with you , is Abe trying to cut your blood money so your upset 1 · 4 February at 04:38 Marijana Stokes Yamamoto San yes he gets his cut off blood money as well as all politicians coast guard. & police Even by Japanese law it's illegal what they doing to poor dolphins but the law is not upheld as government allows it , ask your self why , money is the only answer , capture is lucrative for all concerned from fisherman to government , yes blood money 1 · 4 February at 04:42 Yamamoto San Source please?? 3 · 4 February at 06:15 Yamada Gaku If you don't have any source, your comments are just your own imagination/idea. So please give us the source. 3 · 4 February at 07:15 Stephen Barnett Source please?? Put the link 2 · 4 February at 07:17 Marijana Stokes So they don't sell life dolphins for money they give them away this is funny source look at some off your own posts Stephan Barnet 1 · 4 February at 15:25 Yamamoto San True the fishermen trade dolphins and make money, but you are accusing the PM is having a cut in it, which I'm asking you for your source or proof of your accusation. 1 · 4 February at 16:11 Marijana Stokes Well it's this way they pay taxes which in turn pay the president so more they sell more taxes they pay happier is the government true , tax money part off it is wages for president & politicians is it not . So is it not true that they benefit from blood money as well as all other government departments , the source is natural way that all country's work , don't you think so Jamamoto San 4 February at 16:18 Stephen Barnett Just because your Australian government sells Kangaroo and sheep to the world for bloody money, doesn't mean Taiji trade is also government-sanctioned. . it's your imaginary story as always. 1 · 4 February at 19:54 Stephen Barnett Australia kidnap Kangaroos for captivity and human consumption and get millions of $$$$$ every year. There is no difference than Taiji's dolphin trade. 1 · 4 February at 19:58 Srmg Rojay Look at you #DolphinsFreak you said you care about lives but obviously you don't care millions of innocent people taken in middle east due to US bombing. 1 · 4 February at 18:24
