Re: Japanese dolphin slaughter

I really don't have much of a problem with this myself. I've seen them in the wild, and know that dolphin's are not the creatures that TV has taught us they are. It doesn't meen we should be wholesale slaughtering them, but it is accepted over there for this to happen. Dolphin's are a natural hunter, very much like a shark. After losing more than my fair share of my catch to dolphins while fishing, I lost that TV image that HOLLYWIERD has made for them. And after almost losing my hand to one, that didn't help. ATILLA the killer dolphin in SARASOTA almost got me one day. I stopped to clean somethin off my hands and he came up barely missed my hand, other's weren't as fortunate.

Except for the method of the butchering and the intelligence level of a dolphin vs a cow. And as for the waste issue, I don't know but aren't these the same people who "fin" a shark and throw the shark back to die, for the sake of what they believe is an aphrodisiac?

Again, I'm not happy with unwanted domestic animals (who are thoughtlessly bred and disgarded by freaking idiots every day) being euthanized, but imagine, since you brought it up, if they rounded up a few hundred dogs and puppies into a room and then chased them around the room stabbing them repeatedly until they collapsed and bled to death.

Not if you mean "Flipper." But scientists have been studying them for a long time, and there is no debating that they are one of, if not the most, intelligent animals in the wild. The Navy trains them, much as one would a dog, to do intricate and sometimes dangerous tasks that otherwise a diver would have to do.

Perhaps we'll have to agree to disagree on this. I just have to believe that there's a better way.

Re: Japanese dolphin slaughter

OK, here we go.

What about pigs, we all eat pork.

Pigs are used for medical research because their systems closely relate to humans.
Pigs have been studied as well and it turns out that they
are extremely smart animals.

Now let's send the puppies to Korea,
those puppies you see in boxes are not for sale as pets.
They are kept behind the house and fed all the scraps then one day
someone says what happened to the dog?
answer:

you mean the one with nice juicey hind leg?

Re: Japanese dolphin slaughter

Personally I feel sorry for any animal that is killed in any way shape or form. To the contrary I eat meat and fish as well as hunt deer. I guess I'm a hipocrit. I actually do not enjoy watching a deer die, or a fish die on the deck. But I think the fact that deer NEED to be hunted to be kept in control, and that meat and fish are SO tasty allow me to do it anyway.
