Takepart.com/thecove has recently exposed the killing of more than 20,000 dolphins and porpoises along the coastal region of Japan every year. After slaughtering them the meat of these sea animals are being sold which contains high toxic levels of mercury. These toxic meats are widely sold labeled as Whale meat in Japan and some other parts of Asia. People unknowingly are consuming these toxic meats which can be very much damaging to health. Hence The Cove is conducting a Social Action Campaign to build worldwide awareness against the annual practice as well as the threats of eating contaminated seafood with high level of mercury and to force those in power to stop the slaughter as soon as possible.

Nearly a million people have taken part in the campaign. Hope this will stop the butchery of the dolphins and restrain people from eating contaminated meats as well.
