Ask the government to enter into talks with Japan over Taiji and the dolphins.

Rejected 17 signatures

What the petition asks

Every year, in Taiji, Japan, dolphins are chased into a small cove and butchered in the most horrific and cruel way imaginable. The hunts are subsidised by the dolphin captivity industry, which pays top dollar for a few “show quality” dolphins that are ripped from their families.

I watched live stream of this event a few days ago and it left me feeling not only appalled, but disgusted to be part of the human race. For more information on what organisations are currently doing visit :-

We need help at government level to speak to other civilized communities, with the end goal being talks with Japan to end this barbaric process.
