I am Chinese.My English is not good. I don't konw how to say my feeling.I'm so sorry aboat that. I just want to stop it. 上帝救救这些海豚吧~ 我不想说日本人怎么样,我只想让这件事赶紧停下来吧。
Massacre in the sea by the most deadly creature!
stop the slaughters!
Watched this the other night and was utterly disgusted by these people and more so the japanese politicians who protect them! I have never been so moved in my life and would like to do anything i can to try and stop this slaughter of these innocent intelligent beings! Will do what i can to help. Keep up the fight!
Be strong~!!!!! Polish people are with You. Thx for fight
When the Dolphin looks into the mirror, it behaves like a innocent child. It is a crime.
Thank you so much for making this movie. It was one of the hardest things I have ever had to watch, however it may have been one of the most important things for me to have seen. Watching this brought me to tears, not just for the amazing beings being slaughtered but also for humans. I sense now that there is very little hope for our species to evolve beyond its brutal and sadistic nature. This slaughter must be stopped at all costs and I am willing to do whatever I can to help make that possible.
I think the problem can be solved by killing the demand ... although it is hard. Just like the Shark Fin problem... If we can get everyone to STOP watching dolphin shows in aquarias worldwide, the industry will be gone and thus the capturing... ditto for dolphin meat. Like any illegal trade (animals, drugs, etc, etc) as long as there is demand, there will be supplies. The key is to reduce the demand drastically, then go in and stop the remaining suppliers. If you stop 1 slaughter site, and demand is still there, another location will spring up.
Hi. In honor of Flipper (Kathy), and in respect to this ordeal in Taiji, I believe it is no coincidence, that the two peaks in the background of the cove (in the secret surveillance tapes), VERY MUCH SO resemble two dolphins coming up to the surface for air. If you watch the cove, the scene where we get an inside view by the bonfire, a miraculous geographical resemblance to Dolphins is present. My company (Superforce) will be a soldier in this fight, although we have very little resources, however we can. Those who wish to start a marketing campaign to raise awareness of the mercury, the slaughter, and how pointless the killings are, please join us, and we will come up with something- email: superforceinfo@gmail.com
I just watched the Cove.....and I felt that those killers cannot be children of God.....may be that of Satan....but not God.....they have no hearts........they love money.......they are no human beings.....I vow to give my best to prevent this atrocity.......and I request everyone to do the same.....Thank You...
Save the dolphins and bless their souls.
i just texted and NOTHING happened?!!! I SAW the text that Ric put up during his Oscar speech and I want to spread the message but nothing came up. ???
It's just a small part of the dark of this world, there are something more! We have to do something to change, from now on, from our daily life!
safe them, God made them!
brilliant film. I dont normally find things hard to watch but I did find this one pretty heavy. Great doc. hope the problem gets resolved.
Can't send the text message in China, cried while watching the movie, though. Just had to be here.
小日本真的没有人性! 看了海豚湾The Cove 才了解了更多,关于海豚和关于小日本的残忍!
When I rent the movie The Cove my few friends keep telling me to watch that movie, so I did watch it.. it broken my heart to see that.. I was sooo angry and tear my eye.. it my first time seen it.. I want that have to be stop to kill dolpins and whale.. they are so innconnect mammals..
Hi from Mexico, I try to understand the behavior of humans and at the final I see that most part of the problems had to do with money and power. Its so sad. And all are part of this. Only ourselves can save this world..........some day I hope is not too late.
Hi I'm from Romania and I was trying to send the message Dolphin to 44144 and I received failed sending.I'll try further. Any suggestion ?
Hola soy de chile, no tengo mucha experiencia recien voy a comenzar a estudiar pero realmente todo lo que tenga que ver con masacres y maltrato animal, me opongo! no puedo creer como en esa ciudad de japon tengan barcos, letreros, poleras con animales marinos si los matan de manera brutal, engañan a la gente para que digan que bonito si queremos a los animales aqui, carteles de no se puede entrar se protege especies silvestres! que es eso! me da asco esa gente y el gobierno que esta metido en eso por dinero, sin pensar en el daño que ocacionan acada año a cientos de delfines y la gente que no hace nada ¿a que le temen? podrian generar mas turismo de esa laguna por sus hermosos delfines que lo que hacen vendiendo esa contaminada carne. Ojala la gente alguna vez piense que no fue hecha para estar sola en el mundo, porque si seguimos asi estaremos solos, no existiran especies mas que el humano, pero todos cumplimos un rol importante. CONCIENCIA!!
I am from Romania.I can not believe that such atrocities are happening right before our eyes and the international community does not take any measures against the barbarians.... I watched the documentary The Cove. True massacres. Please stop killing dolphins, whales and seals.
I'm in China, but why I cant send the phone text, if we can join this campaign in China then I think it may help a lot a lot!!!! or can we write email to someone?
I remember a sentence in the film: the government won't do anything, it is only through our people can accomplish something, and it is time now...
I think if more Japanese and people around the world knew about this mass slaughter that it would stop. We need to show this film to as many people as we can and take action... I am praying that this will stop... maybe we need to play dolphin singing- we need to touch the hearts of people the way we have been touched...maybe stand outside of dolphin seaquariums and educate people. The Japanese government doesn't want the west to tell it what to do, they are also threatened by dolphins eating the diminishing fish supply. It is reprehensible that people are being given mercury dolphins to eat- without them even knowing it. Maybe the shame of this will stop them. I am reminded that the US government slaughtered millions of Japanese (Hiroshima & Nagasaki) and now Iraqi genocide.... we are not innocent... but the dolphins are... the chinese girl's comment says it best (Pennyhall)
I have to say that watching The Cove was horrific. I cannot believe that humans are capable of harming such a beautiful creature. These whale killers are ruining the relationships that humans can share with dolphins. They do not have the right to take life away, I hope that a lot of us can come together with this and stop it. If we can't prevent this from happeneing imagine all the other even more grave events that we'll have to overcome and so far I'm afraid to see what is going to happen to humanity in the future. I want to help make a difference.
This is another ugly spot on Japan's face. 这是日本脸上的又一个丑陋的污点。This is another ugly spot on humanity's face. 这是人性脸上的又一个丑陋的污点。 We are called human because of humanity, otherwise we're no more than some billions of cruel greedy tool-making mammals.
I've seen your video, really a great shock. What ever the blood in the sea, or the things they did, is just a kind of crime to the lives on our earth. From now on, I'm your supporter.
(I‘m a Chinese girl,English is not very good,But I want to share my comment to friendes all over the world.So I translate the text downstires in to English,Thank U for sharring and understanding.) I've watch the movie called "The Cove"ten minites ago,I am feeling deeply inside!When watching the teers keep shetting.But after watching my heart goes to blood.It's hurting! Hurting deeply !!When I was a little girl, all the people around me told me that there is a kind of lovely and clever animal called dolphin.And I used to imaging that if people can get a new life after death,I wish I could be a little Douphin so that I can fly in the sea! But at this moment, My blood is freezing. My hearting stop bitting when I seehow the sea goes to red when dolphins were killed.Keep my eyes on the pictures that the lovely dolphin tried its best to see the world last time...Is there anywords to tell? Or say a goodbye to People who used to be its freinds?... Now I can not control my teers like they can not can control thire blood ... Though There are someones doing bad things to the world,I can never blieve that "people" will hurt dolpins... “They will kill everyone they get!”Looking they are killing the dolphins makes me think they killig people as a pig when World War Two.that is not a sprise.because they are professional of killing, aren't they?! I feel pity to the people who are living as a mommy,they are dying and disapparring from the group called people! Dare freinds! Let's save the dolphins! and also the Janpanese soul! On earth we called them "people"!
Japanese are rediculous ! no matter on the history or facing nature! not bear their inhumane activities ,anymore! anyone know the truth should try our best to spread it and call on more and more people to join in the team of stoping this form happening! buy the way AudreyForbes 'scomment is really good! i can''t not agree andmore!
I agree with what Mitzy posted below - "I am not proud to be a human". My partner and I often share the same feeling. Every time we are made aware that yet another species has been pushed to extinction, yet another habitat destroyed and yet another effort to save animals sabotaged we feel ashamed of being humans. When consumers turn a blind eye on the systematic abuse of our domesticated animals, and when the Japanese fishermen carry out, joke and laugh about such cruelties against one of the most magnificent wild ones I can not help asking this question: Where is humanity headed? Whether allowing horrific activities like this to happen is the result of mass ignorance or that of the widely held belief that as "higher beings" we humans have the right to murder animals is still up for debate. I hope it's the former. The film crew's brave deeds and faith on individuals' impact are truly infectious and inspiring, I wish to express my gratitude for their sacrifice and devotion, and for offering many of us a glimpse of hope.
Our whole family enjoyed this film and would like to thank the brave people invovled in this movie, making the world more aware is very important and it seriously took couragous people to complete films of this nature. AGAIN A SINCERE THANK YOU FROM ONTARIO CANADA "SAVE THE DOLPHINS!!!!"
How utterly appalling. I'm truly saddened today to see these despicable acts from those who continue to murder these beautiful and innocent trustworthy dolphins and their family members. Shame on those in Japan who choose to turn a blind eye to this horrific tragedy. I held the Japanese people and nation in high regards until today when I have watched "The Cove" documentary film. Most of the Japanese people don't know about it before but they will now and the question becomes will they stand up and do what is right, just and humane that is the mark of a great society or will they cower to indifference. I know they are capable but are they willing. I pray all Japanese do the right thing and spread the TRUTH of this to everyone they know and change the course of a people's conscience otherwise the stench of shame will spread as more and more people around the world community find out about this from watching the film and sharing the story with all their friends and family. That is what I'm doing and I encourage everyone who cares to do the same.
Humans must learn that we should not have the right to kill over and over again just for our own benefit. We are slowly destroying the earth and it doesn't look like people are even trying to slow down. I am not proud to be a human, we have done nothing good for this world.
My wife and I just watched your film and we are horrified by the acts of "Private Space" and every person in Taiji with the stomach to watch this go on, cover it up and then laugh openly about it. I am sure that there are many people who don't know about these horrible acts or are too afraid to stand up and stop it if only for the loss of their jobs or persecution. Before passing judgment on everyone there you must ask what you would do if your society deemed it acceptable. I commend the brave actions of everyone who made this film possible. It is good to see people with the means investing in the salvation of humanity and the human race. Just the airing of this film will make it impossible for people to turn their backs on the murders being committed there. Next season there will be too many supporters of your cause and journalists swarming the beaches of Taiji for the killings to be possible. I'm sure they will do anything they can legally and illegally to maintain their way of life but they can rest assured that you and the many people you inspire all around the world will be watching. You have our support... Jess & Faith Gotta have Faith British Columbia, Canada
I sit by in the comfort of my little worlds bubble, all the while the world in it's infinite ability to show it's lack of concern for our planet surrounds me like a warm blanket. Like a sheep in the heard all we do is follow, we the MOST intelligent life force on the earth sit by and blindly look away. Its seems beauty has fallen to its knees begging for a savior. Not a god, just someone to care. Not just this issue alone but so many issues need addressing in a proper manor, other than politically posturing. We must take back what is ours before the powers that be take us all down in the greed and lust for money and power in such twisted a manor.
I can't believe this is happening everyday in Japan. We MUST do something to stop it! Not only to save dolphines, but also to save this world, to save our future!
I'm horrified of these people actions. I'll make sure to post this link on any forum and web pages I know. Thats the least I can do to stop this massacre.
Just saw the documentary, and found it extremely shocking and heartbreaking! Slaughtering dolphins, or any other animal for that matter, needs to come to an end!
Please stop murder dolphins. That is crime.
Save the dolphins plz....................stop the barbarian act..................
stop the slaughters... plz...
A message to Japan from one island community to another: the killing HAS to stop! Stop poisoning your children with murder and mercury!! Stop killing these amazing, beautiful, brilliant sea creatures!
I'm a Chinese.I don't why I can't sent "DOLPHIN" to "44144".I want to share those message with my friend.To let more people know the TRUTH.
Wish i can spent my life to do anything to stop it !
I saw the documentary two days ago.The inhumane pictures are still before my eyes.I cry for the dolphins.I curse the foolish people in Taiji.And I will show all my respects to the brave people who told us the truth in Taiji!
The best film I've seen in a long time, well done. As to the cove I say we load it with TNT and block it off. Why do we humans disregard animal life as though it means nothing? Here's to hoping this stupidity will end................SOON!
I just saw the documentary and I am also appalled!!! I want to know where exactly this cove is!!!!!!
Just seen the documentary - I am truely appalled! I will be inviting everyone I know to fight against this and to sign up for any petitions. Absolutely horrific. I'm not usually drawn to tears with many activist missions but this certainly needs to be addressed and soon!
Wow, no comments. I hope this film inspires more action than it did comments on this page!
