“JAPAN, STOP THE DRIVEN HUNT OF DOLPHINS IN TAIJI!”

Today’s protest outside the Japanese Embassy in London, 16 October 2015

“Blood stained seas: Horrifying reality of dolphin slaughter exposed” – Express Newspaper, Stuart Winter, 17 October 2015

Pictures Below – Much gratitude to everyone I spoke with and for giving their kind, verbal permission to share their pictures and ‘brief’ story with me on IWB’s website (blog).

Great to see such a large (many hundreds), colourful and ‘LOUD’ crowd of animal welfare guardians assembled outside the Japanese Embassy, Piccadilly, London.

Plus the support shown by the passing-public:

 ‘Honking’ their vehicle horns

Passers-by picking up Ric O’Barry’s “Dolphins in Captivity” leaflets

Builders from a nearby site declaring in blue painted letters on a large wooden sign:

“We Love Dolphins!” 

Good on you and the Taiji dolphins “Love you Back!”

Good to see so many showing their support to liberate dolphins from the horror of the Taiji Driven Hunt.

Rousing speech from Ric O’Barry, plus Dominic Dyer, Ollie Blackmore and Maria Nangle

Let’s keep up the resolve to “Stop the Slaughter in the Water” 

#SaveTheBloodDolphins #EnoughisEnough

Let’s hope the Japanese Government now intervene to stop the dolphin slaughter in Taiji for all time – It’s an embarrassment to humanity and must end NOW.
