Every year, 20,000 dolphins are killed off the coast of Japan and by petitioning the Japanese Government to act against this slaughter we may be able to make a difference. These barbaric killings are subsidized by the sale of live dolphins by fishermen to the international aquarium market, which pays upwards of $45,000 for specimens to be used in dolphin shows and swim-with-dolphin entertainments. Right now American aquarium specialists are buying 12 bottlenose dolphins for the Ocean World amusement park in the Dominican Republic. I think the trade and slaughter of dolphins is wrong and should be stopped immediately. If you think so too please support our petition to the Japanese government with your online signature: It will only take 30 seconds of your time to show you care so please make a difference and support our campaign. www.petitiononline.com/golfinho/petition.html

Ahhh I've signed a few of these! Including ones for the seal and Whale slaughters! Sign it please. If you have never seen the dolphin slaughter, please watch it on you tube ( Japanese dolphin slaughter is a good Search name). Be warned though they're pretty horrific images.
