THE SECRET IS OUT - SPREAD THE WORD
Please take a minute and watch the trailer here:
If a two-minute trailer can change your heart, imagine what a two-hour documentary can do. Not to sound cliché, not to sound like a critic, but to sound frank and truthful – the scariest part of this documentary is its honesty. Like many things, it all comes down to money. Japanese fisherman catch hundreds of thousands of dolphins so that dolphin trainers can hand select which ones they want to send to dolphinariums (places such as Sea World, aquariums, zoos, etc). Dolphins captured during a Taiji dolphin drive have been sold to dolphinariums for as much as $154,000 per dolphin. The dolphins not selected are then butchered for meat. A dolphin slaughtered for its meat will bring in about $700. The dolphin killers simply would not be able to prosper on the annual dolphin slaughter if members of the zoo and aquarium industry were not paying top dollar for live dolphins. And zoos and aquariums wouldn’t be paying top dollar if people like you and me didn’t pay to see events like dolphin shows and performances.
