Cove Guardians Mel and Clive document the captive selection — at Taiji Japan
Pantropical Spotted Dolphins January 14 , 2014
A pod of 60-65 Pantropical Spotted dolphins (including several babies) was driven and murdered in the killing cove today, adding to an already bloody and horrific week here in Taiji.
Upon review of today's footage, we have documented 10 Spotted dolphins kidnapped for a lifetime of captivity. Dolphin killers and trainers restrained these dolphins, as their family members (including babies) were slaughtered right beside them in the killing cove. As the slaughtering was still in progress, the bloody and injured captives were transferred via skiff and callously tossed into one single 10'x10' harbor holding pen. Their chances of survival are very slim. The entire pod was decimated within minutes and all that was left was a bright blood red cove.
Approximately 176 dolphins from four different species have been mercilessly butchered for human consumption and 24 dolphins have been kidnapped for a life of captivity in the past 9 days.
