Cruelty of captivity industry exposed:
WDCS, the Whale and Dolphin Conservation Society, is today (April 11th) uncovering the worrying involvement of the aquarium industry in dolphin hunts in Japan.

Today, WDCS, the Whale and Dolphin Conservation Society, reveals that one of the world’s largest sources of wild dolphins for display in aquaria, and certainly the cruellest, is dolphin drive hunts in Japan.
