According to media reports, five whaling ships led by the Japanese "Nisshin Maru" left Tokyo Port on the same day for an annual hunting trip to Antarctica. This time, they plan to kill 333 minke whales. The Japanese Fisheries Agency said that this activity will last until March next year, and the purpose of whaling is to study the behavior of whales.

For a long time, Japan has declared that it needs "scientific research" on whaling activities in order to better understand whale migration and eating habits. This so-called scientific whaling makes the international community dissatisfied, and animal protectors point out that there is no need to carry out research through whaling. However, the Japanese government ignored the opposition and even supported it with billions of yen subsidies from 20 16.

In the documentary Dolphin Bay, the blue water in Taiji Town, Wakayama Prefecture, Japan turned scarlet because of killing dolphins and whales. Although strongly condemned by the international community and environmental protection organizations, fishermen here still go out to sea to kill whales every year.

1986 The Global Anti-Whaling Convention adopted by the International Whaling Commission prohibits commercial whaling. For more than 30 years, in the name of "scientific research", Japan has been killing whales off the coast of Japan and even Antarctica, killing hundreds of whales every year.

However, for the purpose of "scientific research" claimed by Japan, since Japan began to "investigate whaling" in 1987, few relevant papers can be consulted, but whale meat has appeared in the Japanese market in large quantities as food.

Strongly condemn this behavior! !
