Save A Dolphin

Each year, 20,000 dolphins are killed off the coast of Japan and by petitioning the Japanese Government to act against this slaughter we may be able to make a difference. These barbaric killings are subsidised by the sale of live dolphins by fishermen to the international aquarium market, which pays upwards of $45,000 for specimens to be used in dolphin shows and swim-with-dolphin entertainments. Right now American aquarium specialists are buying 12 bottlenose dolphins for the Ocean World amusement park in the Dominican Republic. This will subsidise more killings for meat products. The status of these species is often endangered and the killing methods are far from humane.


We think the trade and slaughter of dolphins is wrong and should be stopped immediately. If you think so too please support our petition to the Japanese government with your online signature. We the undersigned demand the end of the barbaric slaughter of dolphins and of the sale of live dolphins to the international aquarium industry:


Act Now! The only way to stop the dolphin slaughter is to keep monitoring, advocating, filming, and bringing attention to it. One of the main reasons that the killing continues is that very few people - in Japan and around the world - even know it is happening.
