Millions of Japanese are not aware the elegal fishing (support by the Japanese goverment) and export of daulphin activity in restricted areas (small Islands) to the news, such as Taiji Island.
The sadistic way of fishing and lack of respect from the goverment of Japan have towards fishing dauphins in Taiji maybe the cause of God being so angry and sending a little warning as a Tsunami. The Japanese goverment have forgotten the philosophy of Buddah for many decades now.
The harpooning (of Dall's porpoise (Phocoenoides dalli)) is for the meat, and is outside the "research" program and IWC control. But very few people eat dolphin these days. Let's hope the hunters will not be able or willing to go back to their old trade after the tsunami.
This species (Neophocaena phocaenoides) is not hunted and lives locally, i.e. not migratory, so its mother is probably still out in the bay, worried sick.
bless this man for his act of kindness with the baby porpoise and also taking care of the other animal victims as well.

It's ironic.
SS and dolphin cult members said the tsunami was karma but the tsunami destroyed nuclear power plants and now ocean is polluted.
Is it SS karma or dolphin's karma?

I don't think it'll survive without its mother who's probably long gone by now. They should've just taken it and raised it in captivity.

It has a CHANCE to survive; I'm glad he took it back to the ocean.

5 minutes later it was snapped up by a shark.

If anyone else would've found it, it would've been harpooned for "research" porpoises.
