It's 2016? We're aware of the risk of animal extinction? We know about 'balance' and 'natural order'?
THEN WHY THE HELL IS THE WORLD LETTING JAPAN GET AWAY WITH THIS???!!
Dolphin Project filming Japanese fishermen capturing and killing Bottle Nose Dolphins
The excuse they use is dolphins eat fish, so by killing the dolphins they stop them eating the fish and leave more for THEM to kill and eat!! Now don't get me wrong, I agree that man needs food just as much as Dolphins but last I checked there wasn't a shortage of fish in Japan and I've not heard of people dying of starvation due to Dolphins eating all the fish! I've heard of fish shortage due to over-fishing by man, but never by other fish!
This is just another excuse for Japan to get their own way. They kill Whales 'for scientific research', yet when the Hague ordered them to hand over the research they didn't have any!
The only people standing up to them is a group called Sea Shepherd. After years of trying to stop them in the seas, they're now fighting them in the courts. What I don't get is why they have to?? Why isn't the Hague or the rest of the world stopping them??
Last night 12 dolphins were brutally murdered in Japan, yet there's not a single mention of it in the news. It's left as a 'cultural issue'. IT'S NOT! It's a global, environmental issue. How many have to die before the world steps up? Do we have to wait until we're down to our last 50 in the wild before something is done??
Without dolphins, we would be overrun with fish and squid to the point that the balance would be lost and their food supply would dwindle. Also, when there's high levels of contaminants in the sea dolphins can absorb them and neutralise them.
In 2014, dolphins were hit with the Morbillivirus that caused strandings and death. Surely that has cut their numbers without killing more innocent dolphins.
Sadly, there's more bad news. As some of you know I was a Greenpeace supporter since I was a teenager. I would get petitions signed, pass leaflets around and generally try and make people aware of their work. But that's now in the past as I will never support them again.
Jon Burgwald speaking for Greenpeace has announced that Greenpeace supports "sustainable" sealing. SUSTAINABLE?????? They shouldn't be supporting any type of sealing! These are not animals farmed to keep people alive, they're farmed for their fur for rich idiots to wear! We have synthetic fur now, we don't need to kill and animal to keep warm. For a charity as big as Greenpeace to make a u-turn like this is ridiculous and disgusting. It goes against everything they stood for.
I agree 100% with Captain Paul Watson comments in his article. All he went through when he was with Greenpeace has been undone but this act.
I could go on forever pointing out where the world has turned away and ignored issues rather than confronting them. Instead, I'll do what I've always done. Spread the word and hope that one day the world will step up and tell Japan and other countries to stop.
Sea Shepherd is involved with at least 16 campaigns at the moment, click here to see which ones and to see how you can help them.
I don't want my great-grandchildren learning about dolphins and whales in books because there's none left in the seas.
