Taiji Action Group (site) by Steven Thompson, TDAG Sept. 2, 2012 I got a telephone call today from a Japanese friend at the Cove today. Ric O'Barry and I showed the Cove (watch for free) at the home of our mutual friends in Taiji four years ago. We still have security issues for the Japanese. Violence is possible. My friend cannot easily contact Sea Shepherd or Save Japan Dolphin activists directly. The message to Cove Guardian, Melissa Sehgal, and Cove Monitor Tim Burns, is that the hunters are upset...he used the phrase "mecha okotteiru" (damn angry). The hunters get together at the Isana izakaya (bar) after their hands are clean. The media coverage...the heavy and constant police presence...the town meeting...Taiji will feel under siege for 6 months and today is just the second day. Activists around the world demonstrated in front of Japanese consulates and embassies. I hope he doesn't have a heart attack. Let's all write a letter every week to: 1. 2. Also consider writing to 3. Dolphins can be so forgiving.

Bienvenue sur Phareland, le site des phares de France aquarium in Taiji 本日10月4日でスジイルカの「ホーク」が当館にやってきて2年がたちました。 非常に神経質で飼育が困難とされているスジイルカですが、現在はマリナリュウムでマダライルカとともに元気に暮らしています。 種目の訓練も進み、回転ダンスや握手などができるようになりました。特に得意なのはジャンプ！！ 上にぶつかってしまいそうなくらい高いジャンプができるんですよ！ そして、健康管理には欠かせない受診動作の訓練も進み、最近では体温測定が安定してできるようになり、先日初めて採血ができました！！ 採血結果も問題なし(o^-^o)初めは尾ビレどころか体にさえなかなか触らせてくれなかったのでとても大変だったようです。 マリナリュウムに引越ししてすぐはマダライルカたちから仲間外れにされていましたが、最近はすっかり仲良し♪胸ビレでお互いの体を触ったり、こすり合ったりしている姿はとても微笑ましいですよ。 スジイルカを飼育しているのは世界でくじらの博物館だけ。
