16-8-2010 For your information it is not fake, and this actually happens in the world, for no other reason than entertainment. Why are you saying that I am a bad person for showing this to an animal loving community, to bring this to your attention. Also on the real purpose of linking it, a lot of worse stuff happens in the world than dolphin hunting, the efforts of the animal lovers should be focused on this atrocity, not RELATIVELY harmless hunting. Hunting dolphin has a purpose, to acquire food, these cats are ki11ed for entertainment.ZOMGZ!!!
19-7-2010 If you like animals then DON'T watch this. It is a fake video of kittens being used as live bait by game fishermen. It is fake but none the less the kittens are soaking wet, shivering and frightened. The video is used to draw people in and then sell them stuff. Don't give them the satisfaction of another hit. I wish I hadn't but I thought it was genuinely something pleasant for animal lovers. ZOMGZ!!! Last time I saw or smelt something like you I was scraping it off my shoe. The moderators should remove the link unless they want to be known as purveyors of animal p. orn.anon

24-3-2010 man I wish japaniese people would stop cause that is just hartbreaking.plus dolphins are cute so I dont see why they would do that.nannie neen
08-3-2010 poor dolphins. imagine if 20,000 people died each year, just in japan, because dolphins ki11ed them. would that change their mind? think how many humans there are compared to one species of dolphin.tryingtohelp
20-2-2010 Okay you don't get it. Dolphins are intelligent and if you were actually reading more articles about thisttopis. Then you would understand that the fishermen use this thing called drive fishing.So what drive fishing does is it disrupts a dolphins sonar. Obviously if you disrupt a dolphins sonar it wouldn't know what to do but swim to shore, but at shore the japanese have set nets to capture the dolphins who tried to swim away. Maybe for all of those people who think that dolphins are smart should read up about his so more. And please enjoy what I have told you. Thank you.notaenviromentalist
17-2-2010 What I really mean is that how we are treating the world today and how our numbers are increasing rapidly, we take over the resources and we get greedy without caring. If we continue to do horrible things to the planet there will be no future, Also we are cutting down trees for our use.85% of our trees have disappeared because of us and this is causing twice as much deforestation,global warming, erosions and landslides. If you think Im lying think about why don't you ever see this stuff on the news? Its simple, if we found out that our trees are getting destroyed by clearcutting them(means going in the forest and cut down random trees without thinking and destroying the animals homes) then businesses wouldn't get $. You might not care but by what we are doing, we are killing the planet and ourselves.Diamonds are forever*
17-2-2010 This is a shame that we are what we are doing to this beautiful world. We are just destroying it carelessly without a feeling in our souls saying what we are doing is wrong. People don't know this because they are blinded by how much money they will recieve. They don't care at all because they think they will be happy forever. I have something to say though, by how we are treating the world, there will be forever. The Earth is taking care of us while we are destroying it. Why ca't we do the same for the Earth? There should be a law about overfishing and overharvesting. They are not only hurtin the planet, they are also hurting themselves and their loved ones if they know it or not.Diamonds are forever*
