The sea became bloody red.. the horrible bloodshed of the pilot wales in the Fær Øer islands.

Every year in this period, since at least 1709 (but there are traces back to the 5th century) in the remote Fær Øer islands, the little danish archipelago between Great Britain and Iceland, tou could see the horrible massacre of hundreds of Pilot Whales, a species part of the oceanic dolphin family (Delphinidae) although their behaviour is closer to that of the larger whales. This is a very uncommon and cruel kinf of fishing because the fishermen don't hunt the whales in the sea, they just wait for them on land and when the whales approach the coasts pushed by the hunger they surround and slaughter them with axes and hooks. The environmentalist association Sea Shepherd have raised the alarm and distributed this shocking pictures.

    Its part of their culture. Whales are food, just like any other animal humans eat.
    The only thing I'd say is that it should not be allowed to get excessive, as it is here. There is no need to kill that many whales all at once, only a strict quota should be allowed.
