It's about animal rights isnt it? smart or dumb, they should all have equal rights. how many animals (from rats to monkeys) do we kill for profits and research? Don't forget the massive number of dogs and cats we kill everyday because we can't take care of them. how about the animals we hunt for kill joy? if this is how we treat our animals, who r we to tell others what to do?

I don't like the way the movie expresses their agenda. I believe that embarrassing people in public, treating them like criminals,or imposing AMERICA's beliefs on them don't work effectively.
The shepherd even when he becomes a gentleman smells of the lamb.
Mercury? Fishes other than dolphins,some of them contain fair amount of mercury,like a tuna,alfonsin, swordfish...and many of middle sized fishes contain a little. So that means, someone eating tuna sandwich or fish-&-chips... very often like the fat Australians eating like pigs,is more dangerous than someone eating a slice of dolphin meat once a month. It's not black or white issue. It's about moderation.
hell ya.. White people are the world police!Most Japanese people dont eat dolphin meat. Its by a few fishermen in that area....Be concerned about your own country where it has the highest rate of extinct animals in the world at the hands of humans.Most Japanese people are freakin vegetarians...Who are you to say what animal deserves to live or die based on western tests of intelligence. We should stop killin so many animals period.Dont you guys kill and eat kangaroos? and uh...kill aborigines?
Finally, Japan rules. Stupid aussie like our Japanese technology. They like Toyota most, Honda, Subaru, Nissan, they are even crazy of Mazda. Finally, Japan rules. Pathetic Aussie. Pathetic!
can you believe someone would knock the rating of this? i mean, i believe that an imperfect rating makes a video look more enticing, but still. a friend of mine on youtube has a stalker because she's posted videos that are against fox hunting. save the dolphins. hearing what you say in this video makes me cringe.
the whole proccess is disgusting, i have seen it and why it still happens the way it does in this day and age, beats me!!?Japan seems to get away with alot of things other countries wouldn't be allowed too. It is interesting how people are influenced money
As a person from Canada who just witnessed an attack on our seal hunts by misinformed people from other countries, I would imagine the Japanese probably have the same reason for removing the dolphins. The seal hunt here is necessary for the fishing industry, seals eat fish (and the hunt is an industry itself also) Then again they might just be a bunch of bloodthirsty savages! I dunno, the Japanese has always been known for eating dolphins and whales, even when the rest of us disagree with it.
So you just kill any competition? The seals & dolphins are not the ones raping the oceans of fish, it is the fishing industries. By your reasoning maybe the sharks should get the opportunity to kill off thousands of fisherman because they are raping the oceans of their food source.
No I wasn't saying that. I suppose if you place man down on an equal level as all animals then I can definitely see your point but reality really changes the equation.
The house you live in...are you sure no other animal would of lived on that plot site? The clothes you wear - you paid a person for those, not the producer right.
I hate to sound crass, but the world doesn't work with animals on an equal level. I wouldn't let a child starve in order to feed a rat...it just isn't practical
Before you go ahead and hate me I'll tell you right now...
Animals shouldn't be harmed needlessly. God didn't give us our ability to reason just so that we would have a tactical advantage over all of the animals. When the seals are slaughtered its because they really reduce the stock of fish (yet a separate animal). Why not consider the culling support of the different species of fish as opposed to killing seals. The trappers aren't fishers too.
Even more then that when you consider how many fish a seal must eat to survive its life cycle - culls usually increase the population and overall health of both species. Since we started culling seals, their numbers have skyrocketed - ironic eh
I have more respect for animals than most people and you assume I believe in your fictitious God, I don't. I also don't eat meat and think that dolphins are more intelligent than 95% of people in the world. I don't see the relevance to where I buy my clothes, but I don't wear leather. I did not say that a rat was more important than a child. We have many more alternate food sources than the fish, dolphins & seals don't!
We have absolutely no proof, of this "God". People believing in stuff like this stuff seems so primitive, and backwards, I always thought it was the weirdest thing about people.
I've got to tell you, it is hard to take you seriously when you call me a murderer. I suppose again if you would call killing animals a crime of murder, that would make me an accessory to murder. Whether or not you believe in a higher power I suppose is your own conviction, that is fine.
To say dolphins are more intelligent than 95% of people is really jumping the gun. If they are so intelligent then all they really need to do is give us a sign of their intelligence. If they are more intelligent than people, a simple thing like not having hands shouldn't stop them.
Really if a dolphin showed a true sign of intelligence they would be treated as intelligent. They are by far more capable then most animals. They have the ability to communicate using sound. It works on pitch I believe, not really language but I suppose some would. The closest they have come to creating tools is this interesting trick a few of one species can do "playing with bubbles". It really is an interesting trick, you should check out that video.
There are countless stories of dolphins saving people from sharks and drowinging, why they would, I don't know, when we have no respect for them or their environment. Of course you would support the caging aof animals in a park to entertain humans, why don't we kill them too - they are taking actors jobs!
I mean they are very trainable, but that isn't really intelligence. However I know what you are trying to get at and that is okay. If your belief is that people are just really speciest and violent animals then that is your belief. Honestly there is no difference between killing a plant or an animal, they both are living organisms. How could you live with a clear conscience knowing you kill more living organisms to eat then someone who eats meat.
I just watched some video on t.v., where a group of dolphins surrounded a small life-boat, to prevent the passengers from being attacked by sharks- this was not "training"...
If I was an dolphin I wouldn't want to communicate with humans, as for calling you a murderer, it is impossible to take you seriously when you quote characters from a fairy story to justify your actions. Maybe I should ask Mikey Mouse for support!
Again I suggest if you are so closed minded to think there is no higher power, that is your own problem. I have no issues with a person having no belief in a higher power, but really you should show that same respect. Comparing God to Mickey Mouse will never win you an argument...that is a deflection and if its an unconscious deflection then perhaps you should reevaluate what you are trying to prove.
There are documented cases of people saving animals, lot of them! However I guarantee you that if you are in the wild without protection any of those same animals will go for the kill if they think they can take you down without too much of a fight.
btw I figured I would address this. You assume I agree with the concept of zoos. I do not except for one purpose, the preservation of species. As the world goes through all of the changes it is right now, it is important to protect the overall integrity of the environment. That includes the animals and plants that make up the different backdrops of the world.
I have never heard of a dolphin killing a person, although I am sure you will correct me if I am wrong. There are actually very few animals that choose to eat humans, when an animal attacks a human it is usually territorial.
I am not trying to prove anything, I have all the evidence I need. I am not the one who brought God into the equation, you did. You also brought up animals playing tricks, I love going to zoo's it is not about entertainment it is about education & research, that is why most zoo's are publicly run, how many public run theme parks are there?
Okay I am going to ignore the last statement because it is just false and has nothing to do with the topic. Also I did not say anything about "animals playing tricks", I was talking about a trick a dolphin can do by producing a bubble with their airhole and then playing with it (from a nature show actually). Like I said, its worth a view.
Perhaps we should chalk up calling to being territorial if that is in fact a justification for one animal killing another. They are invading waters we declare our territory (although if that were the case we would just have to kill everything and that would be very messy and unfortunate). There are hundreds of animals that will attack or eat a human if they think they can get an easy meal. Insects, arachnids, fish, birds, mammals...basically anything that isn't a herbivore will consider it.
btw no I don't know offhand of any documented cases of a dolphin killing a person...rape yes, kill no.
I am not proposing we kill all the dolphins, but I am proposing there needs to be a little give on both sides. The Japanese aren't considering killing off the entire species, they are simply trying to eliminate a percentage of them from a very localized and controlled area.
Just like when the English came to Australia & wiped out the Tasmanian Aboriginals, they were just trying to eliminate them from a localized & controlled area.
You have showed me how unreasonable an individual you are in a pm. I am sorry that people watch your videos and take you seriously. This will be my last reply on this video. Anyway, gl to anyone subscribed to this channel...you know til its deleted like all of her other channels. This is my last response on this video.
Your not the first to say it woudn't load, I had trouble with the processing too, one can't help but think it isn't a coincidence. If you know what it is about plz make a video about it - they season starts on September first - we need to educate the world & the people of Jaopan, who have no idea this is happening!
they sneak that shit into other foods...keeps me from really experimenting in the cool japanese market we have. but i quit shopping there anyway. soy = gmo. and so much of their food contains soy. no tanks.
