End Dolphin Slaughtering in Japan
Target: Junichiro Koizumi, Prime Minister of Japan, Government of JapanSponsored by: Blue Voice
Every year, Japanese fishermen, with the support of the Japanese government, slaughter thousands of dolphins in a brutal manner. And now Japan plans to extend the hunt to include humpback whales!
This practice is killing magnificent, feeling animals, and endangering dolphin and whale populations. Furthermore, this hunt is also hurting the people of Japan. Dolphin and whale dolphin meat sold to the Japanese public contains high levels of toxic heavy metals and organochlorines.
Demand that Japanese law end this brutal slaughter of intelligent marine mammals and protect the health of the people of Japan.

you bet! This brutality is an act of terrorism. How can a "civilized" society allow this? It's called greed, despotism, speciesism & evilness.

Absolutely! Japan has a history of slaughtering dolphins - its time the government addressed the root cause of this practice - overfishing, contamination and loss of habitat are wiping out fish stocks, not the dolphins and whales.

YOU BET! I haven't purchased a Japanese product for years and never will until they stop the senseless slaughters of the innocent. I've put up a link to this petition on my website and will continue to pass the word. The practice of slaughtering these beautiful creatures for"scientific research" has to to stop. Japanese whalers will kill anything with lungs. STOP THE SLAUGHTERS!

What would we do if animals had the means to kill us.... we should treat all living things the way we want to be treated.
