World Animal Week: Day 4 – Protecting Marine Mammals and Protesting Japan's Dolphin Hunts

It's the fourth day of World Animal Week and we're making some noise to Protect Marine Mammals!

Today, WSPA will participate in the 6th annual international protest of Japan's dolphin slaughter, alongside the Whale and Dolphin Conservation Society (WDCS), Massachusetts Animal Rights Coalition (MARC) and Cetacean Society International (CSI).

During Japan's annual dolphin hunts, fishermen herd dolphins and whales toward the shore, where they are either trapped in nets and brutally killed, or kept alive and sold to marine parks/zoos around the world. Some of you may have seen the documentary The Cove, which has brought worldwide condemnation to these activities.

What can you do to help?

1. Join us today at noon ET in front of the Japanese Consulate at Federal Reserve Plaza, 600 Atlantic Ave., Boston, Mass.
2. If you aren't in the Boston area, see if your city is holding a peaceful protest here.
3. We will also hold a discussion on our Facebook page this afternoon to recap the event and answer any questions you have about protecting dolphins and whales.

Also, don't forget to check back tomorrow for the fifth and final day of Making Noise for World Animal Week - we have a special surprise in store that you won't want to miss!
