THE COVE
Directed by
Louie Psihoyos
The Cove also reveals other guilty parties in this astonishing cover-up. They
include this International Whaling Commission, which enables the dolphin
massacres to happen, and the Japanese government, which not only looks the
other way when the subject comes up but goes along when dolphin meat is
sold on the market as “whale”. This despite the fact that scientists have proven
that dolphin meat is filled with mercury which is hazardous in large quantities.
When Japanese interviewed on the street and asked about eating dolphin
meat, they are shocked at the idea. Also, the dolphin meat is being peddled to
school lunch programs.
