Whale needs our help

"Today I received an email for a friend, a sad story about a tradition that takes place in Faroe Islands (Denmark).


Every summer people of the Faroe Islands hunt pilot whales when they are near to the coast; the main participants are young teens and the reason they do it is to show that they´re adults...


I don´t understand this kind of traditions (and I don´t want to), but I´m sure we can change things when they´re wrong.

 

Does anybody know a way to stop this tragedy? Why do humans think the planet is only ours?

 

Thanks for your time.

  • Hi Vinapow, thanks for your comment, but take into account for every man who do things like this, there are hundreds of people trying to stop them...

    Have a nice day...
  • Hi Karenina and Monika, thanks for your comments. There is a group on facebook "Shame on Denmark" (http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=46228611977#!/group.php?gid=4...).

     

    You´re rigth Karenina, maybe it´s not enough to prevent the massacre, but great things always are the result of the little things brought together; and other good news, this information will always be shared and more people will know what is happening.

     

    Someday this tragedy will be only history.

     

  • Hi Notears, thanks for your comment.
  • I think it is a silly thing,not a tradition!Where are the authorities from there in cases like that?!!!

    This is a serious case of damaging our environment,and ruining the ekosystem!

    Hope something can be done,post it on FB,to make a movement,,,,,

    I'm very sad to see such things happen because of ignorant people!
