The dolphins put up an incredible fight today but the killers would not let -Taiji,Japan
February 16th, 2015 - Bottlenose Capture and Slaughter — at Taiji Japan
Disturbing and sinister scenes this morning saw another swift drive end in the live capture of 5 adult Bottlenose Dolphins, plus the butchering of another 2 adults and 1 defenceless baby.
As this once completely free pod was driven in towards the Taiji Cove, the future of this small close-knit family remained uncertain. Relentless harassment from the circling skiffs and drive boats instilled fear and panic among the adults, as they searched for an escape route to freedom both for themselves, and the helpless baby dolphin clinging to their side. But their tireless efforts to escape were to prove completely futile.
In a truly disgusting display of power and gluttony, dozens of Taiji killers and dolphin trainers laughed and joked with excitement as some herded the pod towards their final taste of freedom, and others tossing used cigarette butts into the water as they waited. They were unable to contain their greedy and excitable expressions as their collective vision of hauling in the next "Cash-Cow Catch" was becoming reality. Five adults Bottlenose were hand picked by the local 'Taiji Whale Museum" trainers, harnessed into slings, then transferred to floating pens within the Taiji Harbour, where they now begin their epic journey of torturous starvation, medicated feeding and belittling hand signals from their new task masters and rulers. For the remaining two adults and the one defenceless juvenile, no time was wasted as they were subjected to the same pain and suffering as the thousands of small cetaceans slain in these waters before them.
