The Cove: you will NEVER go to Seaworld again

Posted by dave c (A) on September 8, 2009 at 21:45:01

This documentary made by the trainer who worked on the original series of Flipper and who now holds himself responsible for the worldwide capture/imprisonment/slavery of dolphins shows the shocking (it truly is) and unacceptable events that go on year in year out in a small coastal town in Japan.
The plot of this film is not a secret.
In Japan, the truth is a secret with people eating dolphin meat toxically contaminated with mercury.
This is powerful and professional film making with a dedicated group of people volunteering to help.
That separates it from Sharkwater which told the perhaps even more terrible story of how we kill 100,000,000 every year.
Here the figure is 23,000.
The best go to Dolphin parks(?) for $150,000US, the rest are slaughtered in a pen with spears, the waters run red with blood and the town holds its dirty secret to its chest.

This planet is dying and we have one generation to put it right.
See this film and if you take your children you will have to think of an answer to the question "Daddy, what are we going to do about it?".
