Humans again....I sometimes hang my head down in shame at being one.
This is a pointless slaughter. As you say, they do not even the meat. It is also upsetting to see in one of the photos that parents were happily taking their children for a walk to see the whales with their bodies ripped open. Can you imagine the conversation?
"Come on children, let's go for a nice walk and see the freshly killed whales?!"
"Mummy, did it hurt when they killed them?"
"Don't worry about that. This is a glorious tradition which we have followed for centuries. Celebrate! You will be doing this when you are older"
That is the way the children are desensitized to the pointless cruel killings, and that is the way this vile tradition continues, year after year. The only way it can be countered is by critical publicity - lots of it....
