    "Dolphins must be slaughtered because they eat too many (our) fish; dolphins must be slaughtered because they must maintain the dignity of the former Japanese Empire!" The ugly truth is always behind the collusion of the government and interest...

    The bloody bay... The shocking slaughter scene at the end of the film makes people feel like they are very blocked! Every villager in the global village should watch this...

    A documentary that can't be more mediocre. Of course, I mean the film itself. If you count the funny logic of the documentary, we can only say that the world is full of a group of compassionate ignorance, a group of moral hypocrites and some clever and cunning...

    It is really uncomfortable after reading...Some species are more likely to be "sheltered" or "killed" by humans. If I can't be vegetarian, I can only do my best not to become a part of other animal...

    For the Chinese, the best film describing the Nanjing Massacre in 2009 was not "Nanjing Nanjing" or "Rabe's Diary", but "Dolphin...

    The smile of the dolphins is nature's brightest disguise. This smile makes you mistakenly think that they are always...

    Watching this movie at this point in time is particularly ironic. Ten years ago, they hunted and killed a large number of dolphins. Ten years later, they would discharge 1.25 million tons of wastewater into the Pacific Ocean, turning the earth into a "purgatory." In the future history, they will continue to cover up, rewrite, and deny what is happening today, repeating...

    No buying and selling, no killing

    Let’s talk about these organizations first:

    IWC (International Whaling Commission) International Whaling Commission = British

    Greenpeace Greenpeace = Netherlands

    WWF (World Wide Fund For Nature) World Wide Fund for Nature = Switzerland

    IFAW (International Fund for Animal Welfare) International...

    No matter how well shot Laomei's "Dolphin Bay" is, it is the product of the output of American values

    After watching the newly released Oscar-winning film "The Dolphin Cove" for Best Feature Documentary, I did feel a little moved from my heart. The cute little dolphins were mercilessly killed, and they were killed by low-level means. After all, I am not a middle class in the United States. I can’t...

The Cove quotes

  • John Potter: It sometimes amazes me that the only language which has been extensively taught to dolphins is a version of American Sign Language, which, of course, you use your hands, so you have all these wonderful signals, and people use their hands to give messages to dolphins. And this somehow kind of misses the point because dolphins don't have hands, so this is inherently a very one-way process. And it's this anthropomorphic, "We have something to teach them or control them," and perhaps we ought to be looking at what they can give to us.

  • Hardy Jones: Every cetacean known to man is endangered just by going anywhere near Japan.
