Taiji's Dark Secret

Each year 23 000 dolphins are slaughtered in Taiji, Japan during a killing spree that begins in September and goes through March.

A dolphin is sold for their meat at $600 each. Most of the people consuming the dolphin meat are being mislead by false labels present on packaging. Dolphin meat contains high levels of mercury which results in loss of memory, loss of hearing, loss of eyesight, loss of speech and malformation.

This book was designed to reveal Taiji's dark secret and was inspired by the documentary "The Cove".

The Cove, Dir. Louie Psihoyos. Perf. Ric O'Barry, Roadside Attractions, 2009.
