The Cove

Today I just finished watching a documentary called "The Cove" and I was shocked just as I sure you will be. Did you ever think about where that cute little dolphin came from at Sea World or the countless kissing dolphins at Caribbean resorts? Well this documentary reveals the shocking truth! Thousands of dolphins are trapped, sold and those not sold are slaughtered for their flesh  and are sold as "whale meat". I really recommend that you educate yourself on this topic by watching this documentary and no longer support Sea World, or tourist attractions that showcase dolphins or any other marine animals. Here is a PSA about this issue.


This issue is not just important for the dolphins but for the countless people that are eating this toxic meat every day. Mercury is a poison to the nervous system and it can cause brain damage as well as other serious health issues.




Before a issue can be solved we must first know the issue exists. It is a great documentary and there are many things that you can do to get involved as there is an on-line community. This link http://www.thecovemovie.com/ allows you to watch the movie free of charge as well as explore the shop, and get involved (I signed an online petition). I am unsure of how the earth quake effected this particular area of Japan. I do hope that as the country is rebuilding they will also eliminate the slaughtering of thousands of innocent dolphins. Sending love and light to the people and dolphins of Japan.
