"Es ist der 30. Januar 2024, 9:00 Uhr am Morgen in Taiji Japan, als die Formation vom Takababe Hill der Bucht aus gesichtet wurde. Das war nachdem die Küstenwache bereits zur Bucht aufgebrochen war um die Killer vor wem auch immer zu beschützen. Ich bin mir nicht sicher, wie lange die Gruppe schon zu diesem Zeitpunkt von den 11 Knallerschiffen getrieben wurde.
Es wurde angenommen, dass sich die Gruppe einmal geteilt hat, aber es scheint, dass sie sich weit und breit ausgebreitet hat.
Bild by Kunito Seko: Sehr junge Risso's Delfin Mutter mit ihren vermutlich ersten Baby, zu erkennen an der noch dunklen Farbe und wenige Kampfspuren mit mit ihrer Beute, Kopffüsser.
Nachdem die Formation bestätigt worden war, wurden sie mehr als 2 Stunden lang gejagt, und etwa 10 Delfine in die Bucht getrieben. Es handelte sich um eine Gruppe von Risso-Delfinen, darunter Mutter und Kalb Paare.
Video vom 30. Januar 2024, gefilmt von Kunito Seko in Taiji Japan
In diesem Moment konnte man außerhalb der Bucht lautes Dröhnen der Motoren der Jagdschiffe wegen der geteilten Gruppe hören. Ich bin mir nicht sicher, ob die Jäger die eine geteilte Gruppe Delfine in die Bucht treiben wollten, oder ob sie sie auf das Meer hinaus treiben wollten, denn niemand konnte sie sehen. Aber die andere Gruppe wurde nicht in die Bucht getrieben.
3 Babys wurden in Schlingen gelegt und mit einem Boot zum Bangerskiff gebracht, das außerhalb der Bucht wartete. Die Jäger stapelten die Schlingen und hängten sie nacheinander links und rechts an das Boot, so dass man dachte, es seien 2 Babys, aber als ich die Fotos von Kunito nach seiner LIVE-Übertragung überprüfte, waren es 3 Babys, wie die Jäger sagten, es seien "drei". (Bangerskiff in Engl. Knallerschiff, Synonym für die Jagdschiffe in Taiji, weil die Killer mit einem Hammer auf eine Eisenstangen schlagen um für Delfine einen ohrenbetäubenden Knall zu erzeugen, um sie zu erschrecken. Die Killer bilden für Delfine eine unüberwindbare Knaller-Wand.)
Wie üblich wollten die Jäger sie nicht auf die Quote anrechnen und warfen drei verwaiste Babys ins Meer, die allein nicht überleben können. Dies wird der Fischereibehörde des Ministeriums für Landwirtschaft, Forstwirtschaft und Fischerei über das Fischereibüro der Präfektur Wakayama offiziell als "RELEASED" gemeldet.
Dann töteten sie alle noch lebenden Delfine.
Wenn wir die Anzahl der Seile auf dem Foto zählen die zum Schlachthof gebracht wurde, sind es heute 8 plus die Aussetzung von 3 lebenden Babys mit geringer Überlebenschance.
Die vorgeschriebene Regel, dass man sich bemühen sollte, die Opferung von Mutter-Kalb-Paaren zu vermeiden, wurde auch heute wieder ignoriert.
Wir beten, dass die ausgesetzten Babys mit einer anderen Gruppe, die entkommen konnte, wieder zusammengeführt werden und vielleicht überleben." ~Megumi Matsuda
Wir kennen die Geschichten in Taiji, Brutalität und Gewalt auf höchstem Level an sanftesten Wesen der Erde. Nirgend wo auf der Welt werden Delfine so fürchterlich extrem grausam misshandelt wie in den Färöer Inseln und Taiji. Es ist kein Zufall dass Klaksvik der Färöer Inseln und Taiji in Japan Schwesternstädte sind, dies hat Propaganda-Charakter. Beide können deswegen behaupten, die anderen tun es auch, so lange sie es tun, tun wir es auch.

About 10 Risso's dolphins were driven into the Cove. 3 babies were dumped at sea, and the remaining adults were all killed and taken to a butcher's house.

💔💔💔 THREE BABY SEA ORPHANS 💔💔💔
Your future is far from certain as you face a life left alone to survive in a hostile and unknown ocean
Here you wait for the love and care of your mothers who can never return
An ocean where you once felt safe because your mothers were there to shelter protect and guide you
The ocean home you shared with them was a place of wonder and delight
Those days have ended along with the lives of your mothers
Their brave fight for life ignored by men who show not one ounce of compassion or mercy
You will forever carry the image of the brutal deaths your mothers endured
Separated from them you suffered only fear and confusion
Just a few short hours ago you swam together as a loving family
A family unaware of Taiji and the dangers that are ever present for your kind..
We will pray for you little ones that by some miracle you will survive but fear our prayers will not be answered
💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔
Thank you dear Kunito for witnessing yet another drive and brutal slaughter 💔

#taiji in #japan turns blue water RED with the blood shed in the COVE by a small family of Risso's dolphins. . Another sad terrible day as Kunito Seko witnessed and documented the tragic outcome for 10 Risso's dolphins. An unfortunate portion of a larger pod who were unable to break free due to trying to protect the young within the family. Although, they did make several attempts to escape the clutches of the hunters , they were no match for the large noisy vessels forcefully herding them towards their doom. Once inside the cove 3 babies were spotted swimming with their mothers.. These precious souls were orphaned and dumped back out at sea ,left to fend for themselves, helpless and vulnerable to predators and starvation without the protection of their mothers and other family members.. Their mothers and relatives brutally slaughtered. Their only hope now is for the surviving pod to hear their distress calls and come to their rescue. This is the treatment of dolphins Taiji claims to be "humane." In what universe could this ever be considered to be so?!
These poor dolphins lives mattered and we will not be silent nor will we forget. For this family, others before them and others sadly still to come we raise our voice. 💔 Day 152
Annie Jung
Day 152
Today Taiji Japan Hunters push a Pod of Risso Dolphins, into the Infamous Cove.
We all know how this ends...💔💔💔
Around 10 Adult Risso Dolphins lost their lives in a cruel inhumane manner.
The three babies were dumped back out to the Ocean. With Very small chance of Survival.
I hope someday that there will be Justice.
Thank you Kunito Seko for your documentation. Thank you for being our eyes.
Rest In Peace Sweet Souls God Speed 💔🙏🐬
Today the Cove is Red

The cove turned red💔.
A family of Riss'o dolphin Family were driven cove and three of their children were abandoned offshore. The mother was killed and could not survive on own. Camouflage not killing, if animal welfare law, it is a crime.!!!!

They're absolutely petrified. This isn't tradition and hasn't been for years, it's greed and vile blood thirsty humans. Sickening.

These poor helpless babies.. They will be so frightened if not in shock! 💔😭 They should never have be subjected to this barbaric cruelty, but the hunters and all involved in this feel they are entitled to heap as much suffering as they possibly can upon these innocents. 😡

2024/01/30 ~ 💔🐬 RED COVE 🐬💔
Another very terrible heartbreaking massacre took place this morning in Taiji as the Dolphins killers brutally destroyed an innocent peaceful family of Risso's who were simply living their life in "The Ocean, their home" 💔 Like they like to do after chasing and terrorising them, they pushed them in the Cove even fought with some victims in the water to bring them under the tarps to be murdered 💔 They violently slaughtered about 10 adults and went back out at sea to mercilessly dumped 3 little babies that we all know will most probably not survive 💔
So sorry you had to bear witness again to such atrocities dear Kunito Seko🐬🐳 ~ Thank you to be as strong as you are to be able to document/report how they treat Dolphins in Taiji 💔

💔😪Red Cove😪💔
Another heartbreaking day. The killers went out again today and found a pod of Risso's dolphins. Some of the pod were able to escape, but unfortunately 10 Risso's dolphins including 3 babies could not escape those terrible killers and were driven into the Cove. And once again the aggressiveness by the killers and divers was seen again. No mercy for those poor dolphins. The mothers tried to do everything to protect their babies. But unfortunately they couldn't win against those terrible killers, divers. The other dolphins membres and the mothers were led under the tarps and brutally slaughtered. The poor babies saw it all and then they were dumped back in the sea without their mothers. The chance of survival is very small. But I hope and pray that those who managed to escape find them again and take care of them. Yet another family murdered by the greed of these killers.
Rest in peace precious Sea Angels 💔😪
Thank you Kunito for witnessing and documenting this terrible slaughter. Respect for what you do for our friends Sea Angels.

Another day of brutal torture and murder by the Taiji Monsters of a Nursing Pod of Rissos Dolphins Three babies, after witnessing their Mothers stabbed to death, were left to die at sea. This brutality is witnessed by Kunito so that the world will know of the evil practised day after day against migrating dolphins. 💔💔💔💔💔💔💔. 💔💔💔
みみ しまだ
2024年01月30日(火)
09時00分。
一隻の海上保安庁のボートがやってきた。
沖では恐らく既にフォーメーションが組まれていた。
09時20分。
船が横並びしているのが遠くに見えた。まだまだ遠く、群れには逃げるチャンスが充分あったが、船隊は06時43分出港、このとき既に3時間近く経過している事から、フォーメーションの時間が長く、かなり体力が奪われていたと推測できる。
10時10分。
いよいよ入り江に近づいてきた時には猟船6隻が黒煙を執拗に吐き、スキフボート3隻も加わっていた。
この群れには子供が含まれているとクニトさんは言った。
「親子が一緒に泳いでいる」そうも言った。
10時27分。Netted.
入り江に網が張られた。
追い込まれたのは10頭ほどのハナゴンドウ。
そして網の外では、数頭の群れが留まっていた。逃げようと思えば逃げられたのに仲間を思ってか、逃げる気配はなかった。
バンガーの音は相変わらず鳴り響いていたが、この群れが追い込まれることは結局なかった。猟師はもしかしたら沖に追いやっていたのかもしれない。
ハナゴンドウは身体に刻まれる白い傷が美しい。しかしこの多くの崇高な命はこの後、猟師たちの手によって殺められる。
生きようと必死だったのに、子供の為に生きなくてはならなかったのに、稚鯨3頭を除く全ての大人のハナゴンドウの命は絶たれてしまった。
RED COVE
スキフボートの両脇に備えられたストレッチャーの中の3頭の稚鯨は猟船に移し替えられ、遺棄のため沖へと向かっていった。
猟師よ！
網の外の群れはしばらく留まっていたはず。稚鯨3頭をなぜ群れに戻さなかったのですか？
