\nWe have already talked about the international objections to Japan’s whaling program, but over the last couple of weeks, another issue has been grabbing headlines around the world. This is the story of the dolphin hunt that takes place in Taiji every year. <\/p>\n
I don’t know how aware Japanese people are of this issue, but it became a global news story after a film called “The Cove” was made about it.<\/p>\n
As you know, I am strongly against the hunting of whales, so I’m sure I don’t need to tell you what I think about the idea of herding dolphins into a cove and then slaughtering them for meat. <\/p>\n
Leaving aside my own personal views, however, the reality is that like whaling, this issue has a hugely negative impact on Japan’s image around the world. Some Japanese people don’t seem to care about that, so I would love to hear your opinions. <\/p>\n
To me, this issue is what we would call in English a “no-brainer.” Instead of killing the dolphins, why don’t the people of Taiji take people out on boats to look at \/ swim with them? I can’t imagine that anyone feels particularly strongly that they want to eat dolphin meat, so why not do something else that would a) remove all the negative publicity and b) make much more money?<\/p>\n
Anyway, I would love to know your answers to these questions:<\/p>\n
1) How aware are Japanese people of this hunt?
\n2) How aware are Japanese people of the negative publicity that it gets internationally?
\n3) Do you think Japanese people generally support the hunt?
\n4) Why do you think that the Taiji fishermen continue to do it?<\/p>\n
Look forward to hearing your opinions.<\/p>\n
