    Alot of people (not just on here but on other sites also) write them off as useless. They are not useless, they deserve better, i do not just care for the fact that they are dolphins i am angry and upset about the way they go about killing them, it is inhumane.

    There are plenty of other petitions going around, i for one have signed ALOT of these from dolphins, to tigers etc. Yes there are alot of animals that will go extinct if we do not do anything about it.

    I would like to see something done about it, i haven't just signed it because they are intelligent and are harmless beings but the fact that they do not need to kill the dolphins to feed their family. The way they killed them was inhumane and they are advertising/selling it in the shops and saying it is whale when it isn't.

    It is inhumane how they dragged the dolphins through the streets, they didn't give them anything to ease their pain, they cut them open and left them to suffocate.

    You can't say that we are *only* concentrating on one animal, this just happened to be one right now that has been posted. I'm sure I'm not the only one who has signed other petitions for other animals. Yes I care for humans too, and donate various things to charity, i also hand over some cash as and when i can.

    But some of us also care for the animals. I don't feel it is right to hunt animals to extinction - whether they be stupid or intelligent animals, should make no difference, we as humans have no right to wipe out a whole race of animals.

    Sorry, I was agreeing with you :unsure:

    But someone said certain species of dolphins are extinct so I said not the ones they're hunting.

    No, i dont care just BECAUSE its a dolphin, i care because of the inhumane and cruel way they kill them, also a dolphin is a more exotic animal than any ordinary fish you catch in a lake, still most of the fish that are catched and eaten are skinned or whatever AFTER their dead, these dumb assholes do it while theyre alive.

    No one ever said they didn't care about cow, pigs, sheep, foxes, rabbits, non-human primates...just the topic was fixed on the slaughter of the dolphins. Yeah most of the meat you buy from the supermarket the animal was abused etc. etc. and thats why people try hard to get people to go vegetarian or vegan

    I agree with what kirbir said too, just cause we're taught that we're superior than animals doesnt give us the right to rid them of our planet or abuse them.

    People have rights to their opinion, some think it's wrong and some just don't care.
    I think it's just sick.

    This is a crazy situation, humans have no clue what they are really doing most of the time. I signed, but I don't think it will do much because fishing meat is popular and is a big part economy, unless it's put to internation concern and is resolved internationally the prime minister won't stop.

    Where are you from?

    Other countries over the world eat all kinds of food. I am African, my parents gave me all kinds of food that people wouldnt even think about eating in America(where I live)

    I have been to Africa plenty of times, I saw an ten year old chop a chicken head off, sell it to my mom and that what she cooked for dinner. I was eight years old at the time, but really what makes us so different.

    yeah i know they eat different kinds of animals, but mostly we're talking about how they treated them, still tho eating them is still a pretty big issue

    yeah ive seen a chicken get killed for food, its not cool either, i was around your age too at the time

    are u asking whats so different from humans and animals or something else?

    Oof?

    -sigh-

    So stop eating meat, stop wearing leather, dont wear make up and dont eat meat or eggs etc. etc. ever again.

    Your not going to are you?
    You will keep doing the same things that torture those animals day in and day out, don't proclaim to care about all the other animals when you'll gladly put them under slaughter.

    A lot of things get killed in cruel ways, fox hunting is unbelivably cruel. Then again, who are you to judge how another culture acts? What you consider vile and inhumane might not be for them.

    I'm not saying all Dolphins deserve to die, far from it. But if your in for a penny, your in for a pound. And if every people stuck to that attitude then, eesh.
