It is so cruel the way they are herded together so helplessly.

If you'd read any of that thread properly, you'd have known that The Cove documentary is a poor way to get a view of what goes on at this kind of dolphin hunt. A lot of the 'barbarianism' is hyped up by the film crew and director and it's an incredibly biased production. I mean, it's still awful if you are a dolphin /really like dolphins, but not very much worse than what happens to the average cow world-wide.

The Cove dolphins aren't a threatened species so the population doesn't actually take much of a hit from these culls. It was a Blue-fin Tuna sold recently, and they -are- pretty vulnerable to overfishing.
