Dolphin Hunting in Japan
- "Japanese fishermen kill the largest number of dolphins anywhere in the world and dolphins and porpoises face grave danger in Japans coastal waters when the annual hunt begins. This year the drive fishery, a method in which dolphins are forced ashore and hacked to death, has taken place in Taiji and Futo." - excerpt from the Earth Island Institute web page at http://www.earthisland.org/saveTaijiDolphins
