Titled 'Flailing fins in emerald sea turned red - Japan's dolphin hunt begins' the report details the appalling slaughter of pilot whales and dolphins in Taiji where 100 bottlenose dolphins and 50 pilot whales will be slaughtered - to international condemnation. Over the next six months 2,300 dolphins will be killed by the town's fishermen - out of Japan's "quota" of 20,000 dolphins. Read more if you want to (the Guardian newspaper, 15/09/09) and see below - I can't write any more.http://www.savejapandolphins.org/http://www.ikjeld.com/japannews/00000239.phphttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taiji,_Wakayama[/fusion_builder_column][/fusion_builder_row][/fusion_builder_container]
