i just want to put this out there yes teaching the animals to do tricks is mean but if the animal wants to learn then why not, some animals acrutally do like to have people around then some are frightened by it, also a lot of animals are becoming endangered species im not sure about the dolphin but i do know a lot of animals are being killed by humans and a lot of people say put them back where they came from if the water has oil and the land has no trees where do they go? but
@destiny829 i do not think animals should be hunted or bought, if there land or the water they are in or they are injured then yes its okay to take them in but if chose to take it the habitat should be quit big since these animals live in big areas and need room also things they normally live with like fish (still alive)and such should be with them
@jaquitaloca I have pet rabbits and not all zoos are like that just a fyi and my pet rabbits are not starved but still try and do what ever i try to teach them, to run a zoo and things like that in the usa you are inspected all the way. Go to a puppy mill tell me who has it better.
@destiny829 maybe at this place they are but not in all places and don't forget every animal is different we can select certain animals showing certain traits and have them off spring with a animal that shows that kind of trait and most likely a couple of the litter will have that trait so some of these animals you see do tricks may actrually enjoy it
@destiny829 also not all humans are the same the same goes for animals they all are unique with different traits and different feelings no two animals are the same.
@destiny829 i do not want to generalize but MOST zoos etc. are like that, wherever in the world! and please do not compare your rabbits with captive dolphins: you give them treats as a positive reinforcement apart from their main food, MOST captive dolphins ARE starved to cooperate, the food they are getting looks like a treat in a show but MOSTLY it is part of their daily ration. puppy mills is a different story whatsoever, so no point bringing it up here.
i also have animals at home. dog, cat and horse are not starved either but you can not compare domesticated animals with those far roaming ones, even if they were brought up in captivity
Thank you for being an advocate for these gorgeous, intelligent beings. It's dead wrong to keep them in tiny concrete boxes like this, for the sake of human entertainment. Keep up the great work in japan, on behalf of dolphins!
Leilani, I think it is amazing what you are doing and also follwoing on FB. I don't know how you do it, I really don't. I know this is happening worldwide, but do you really think that the slaughter will ever stop at The Cove? Good Luck with all you are doing, you are inspirational x
The public needs to know how cruel the Japanese people really are. It doesn't matter if a ticket was purchased to be able to create this video clip, what matters is that there is and end to this horrible behavior by these people. Obviously some people don't care about the future of our marine life or planet as a whole.. I wish the worst of harm for these people.. that's what they deserve!!!
@SharkeyGirl777 do not discriminate and isolate one country on this issue - dolphin captivity happens all over the world, not just japan. the usa is a big offender as well. it is not one country, it is the whole world that supports this sham of "education" which is really animals doing stupid tricks for human entertainment so the parks can make a buck.

@Imforthewhales This actually happens in countries around the world, including the United States and Canada. Many dolphins and whales in our own countries are treated just as badly as these ones seen in Asia. Plus, many US and Canadian zoos and aquariums have supported the Taiji dolphin hunt with their money, buying animals from it to stock their theme parks! :/
In the description to this video you caution people to think twice before purchasing a ticket to enter the Taiji Whale Museum, the museum from where you took this video. So are you stating you entered the museum to make this video illegally by not purchasing a ticket? Or are you saying you purchased a ticket to enter the museum to make this video making you a hypocrite? Just asking…..
@PropagandaBuster2 PUrchasing a ticket to document cruelty is very different from purchasing one for one's own "entertainment." Or is that too complex an idea for a "propaganda buster"?
@chaplaindl thanks, yeah i didn't purchase a ticket, i was filming from outside the gates from public property. this guy "PB2" is a jerk and trolls all my pages.
One day I hope Japan will be completely and utterly destroyed by disasters so they can no longer perpetrate these crimes on the world. Don't even try telling me how wrong it is to feel this way.
One day if I am able t,o I hope to create an organization that will one day convince the whole world to free at once all the sea creatures and land animals back to their homes!! And celebrate that same day and mark it on all of the calenders what the world did together as one to our creatures in captivity. And make that day be known to everyone on this planet!! That on that special day we freed our creatures in captivity!!!
