Yahoo Japan is selling whale and dolphin meat including from animals killed in Taiji, Japan! Yes, it's selling dolphins and whales killed at "The Cove." I have been here in Taiji for the past 3 years documenting the dolphin and small whale drive hunt, captive selection and slaughter. I will never be able to forget their cries and the blood red water as killers slaughtered these intelligent, sensitive beings!

 

Amazon.com, the largest online retailer in the world, stopped selling dolphin and whale meat. Why can't Yahoo put the same policy in place for all its sites around the world - including Japan?

 

The Humane Society International and Environmental Investigation Agency have not been able to convince Yahoo to change despite evidence of meat contaminated with high levels of mercury and sometimes from animals protected by the International Whaling Commission. I need your help, though, because I know we can do this!

 

Here are some links if you need proof that Yahoo is selling these products right now!

Yahoo.com continues to sell dolphin and whale meat from Taiji.
Below is video footage of local Taiji meat buyers sifting through Pilot whale remains after slaughter. These filthy unsanitary conditions are common and a daily practice for meat buyers and distributors. Yahoo refuses to stop supporting Taiji's dolphin and small whale slaughter.
We have nearly 150,000 signatures already. but need more to continue to put the pressure on the big corporations that are profiting from this cruelty.

From the preface to "The Story of San Michele" by Axel Munthe (written in 1929) ~ "All that is best in me I have given to the Animals and I mean to stand by them to the last and share their fate whatever it may be. If it is true that there is to be no heaven of rest for them when their sufferings here are at an end, I for one, am not going to bargain for any heaven for myself. I shall go without fear where they go, and by the side of my Brothers and Sisters from the Forests and the Fields from the Skies to Seas, lie down to merciful extinction in their mysterious Underworld, safe from any further torments". Axel Munthe 1857 -1949
