Japan: Stop the Slaughter & Captivity of Dolphins

Taiji Mayor Kazutaka Sangen & Prime Minister Kishida

The slaughter of whales and dolphins approved by the Japanese government is universally opposed by nations and people.  Does Japan really need such black marks on their national reputation?

When you sign this petition, you are pledging NOT to ever buy a ticket to a captive dolphin show; you are telling the Mayor of Taiji and Japanese Prime Minister Kishida that the slaughters and trade in live dolphins is unacceptable. You are demanding the release of the albino dolphin Angel, and refuting the idea that the Taiji dolphin hunts are traditional, as this has been proven false.

The Save Japan Dolphins campaign will be presenting these petitions to representatives to the Japanese government at future events. Help us spread the word, sign and share.

It is long past time that the government of Japan ends the slaughter of whales and dolphins and the trafficking in live dolphins and whales.

Now that WAZA and JAZA agree that the code of ethics prohibits capture of live dolphins for captivity during the cruel Taiji hunts, we call on the Taiji Mayor and the Japanese Prime Minister to permanently halt both the slaughter and trade in live dolphins, release the dolphin Angel into a seapen, and stop insisting that the hunts are a cultural tradition, as this has been proven false. Commercial whaling should also come to an end.
