It is said the crazy Hannah will be on the ship for just one week. Because she must go back to hollywood to continue her acting works.

Not enough time to "save the whales"?

She makes a fool of the Sea Shepherds. It is good.

This is no plunder. The Japanese government's ardent wish is only for the sustainable use of whales. Japan can share the sustainable quota with South Korea, Russia, whoever else likes to join.

The dolphin and porpoise are the different species. I suppose few persons eat dolphin so much that it becomes the big problem. The government report shows it is changing, fishermen are also adjusting their catch down as demand shifts from dolphin and porpoises to baleen whales.

bushlover,

In some places in Japan dolphin is the traditional food for them.

All,

I found numbers of dolphin and porpoises from Japanese government funded institute.

See page 5. The porpoises are many in number, by the 2007 figure. 170,000. 2006 catch was about 4% for the RIKUZEN porpoise,…

bushlover,

Dolphin and porpoise are both small species. 20,000 is not so much meat. 20,000 sardines is even less. It is better to take more whales instead, but the Japanese government is too weak and slow to reopen the normal whale fisheries.

In fact, in government report on porpoise status,…

taiko666,

Please see article: "Campaign Whale and the Environmental Investigation Agency, which claim nearly 20,000 dolphins and porpoises are killed by Japan each year."

This is true. Japanese government research summary is here for Dall's poipoise: http://kokushi.job.affrc.go.jp/H18/H18S/H18S46.pdf http://kokushi.job.affrc.go.jp/H19/H19S/H1946S.pdf

If we suppose porpoise species will be hunted to extinction, how may…

nutsagain,

I promote not whale consumption. I am a whale consumer, longing for more whale. We need not dolphin and porpoise if we have more whales. Remember the story "In the mid-1980s the numbers killed increased in order to substitute for the lack of striped dolphins, which had been overhunted,…

Andy Ottaway says the Dall's porpoise population is driving to extinction. REALLY? If such was the truth, Japanese regulators would not be allowing the harvest at all.

OssanULTRA, dolphin and porpoise are sometimes regarded as KUZIRA. They are the type of KUZIRA, but the Ministry in charge of the fisheries…

This is the very traditional Japanese whaling. I am sure some bonkers non-whale eater will write here to complain.

My definition is standard one. Same as Wikipedia or dictionary.
