Stop Japan's Dolphin Slaughter

Stop Japan's Dolphin Slaughter

The Issue

Every year, Japanese fishermen, with the support of the Japanese government, slaughter thousands of dolphins in a brutal manner.

Killing dolphins is not only grotesquely inhumane, but eating dolphin meat has been proven to be a serious health hazard. Some dolphin meat sold to the Japanese public contains mercury in excess of levels found in the Minamata catastrophe. Tests of dolphin eaters has shown levels 96 times what Japan's public health laws allow.

Demand that Japanese law end this brutal slaughter of intelligent marine mammals and protect the health of the people of Japan!

Representatives from BlueVoice will hand-deliver your signature to Japan's delegate to the upcoming International Whaling Commission meeting, where their dolphin slaughter will be discussed -- but we need your signature by June 19 for hand delivery!

Thank you.

Target: Mr. A Nakamae, Japanese Commissioner to the International Whaling Commission
