The annual mass slaughter of around 2000 dolphins a year in the town of Taiji, Japan. A pod of dolphins is herded into an inlet, using loud noises to terrify them. The most attractive dolphins are handpicked by dolphin trainers from all over the world to be used in captive programs or aquariums like Seaworld. They are taken and placed into cages, while the others are herded into a hidden cove. The next day, when the dolphins are calmer, they are all killed. Normally, they are killed using a knife to the neck or spine. The carcasses are then loaded onto trucks to be shipped for processing.
