Another pod of Striped Dolphins Driven into the Cove
Taiji Japan - February 8, 2024: (No Blood in this video)
By Megumi Matsuda:
This morning was no different from yesterday, with unfortunate weather conditions for dolphins/whales.
2 banger boats were seen returning to the harbor about 2 hours after they left for the hunt. Their speed was suspicious. The FORMATION was soon confirmed.
The pod that were driven today was also Striped dolphins. The first pod was split into 2 at offshore, one of them head to offshore. Although they were pursued persistently by 3 bangers, they had escaped safely.
Another one was also very brave. They dived deep frequently and tried to escape some times.
And even just in front of the Cove, as if they knew it was the last chance, they tried to escape offshore at high speed. But their desperate escape was prevented. They were driven into the Cove and were all killed. It was difficult to confirm whether there was some little ones or not.
Today, a pod of about 14 intelligent and brave Striped dolphin was taken away again by greedy hunters. In order to be made into meat eaten by very few people in very limited areas of Japan.
Even though they just wanted to pass offshore of Taiji.
