Group: 250 Dolphins Await Slaughter, Lifetime of Captivity
at Japan's Taiji Cove

(CNN) -- Japanese fishermen rounded up more than 250 bottlenose dolphins
in a secluded cove to kill for meat or sell into a lifetime of captivity,
U.S. conservationists warned.
.
The annual hunting of dolphins at Taiji Cove highlights the rift between
conservationists worldwide who see it as a bloody slaughter and Japanese
who defend it as a local custom.
.
The Sea Shepherd Conservation Society first raised the alarm over the
plight of the dolphins Friday, saying five separate pods of bottlenose
dolphins had been "driven into Taiji's infamous killing cove."
.
The group warned that the dolphins would "face a violent and stressful
captive selection process. Babies and mothers will be torn from each
other's sides as some are taken for captivity, some are killed, and others
are driven back out to sea to fend for themselves."
.
By the end of Saturday, 25 dolphins had been removed from their pod and
taken "to a lifetime of imprisonment," the group said. One of them died in
the process and will be butchered, it said.
.
The dolphins will be kept penned in the cove for another night before the
selection process begins again Sunday.
.
'Panicked, frightened and fatigued'
.
The Sea Shepherd Conservation Society live-streamed video of events in the
cove Saturday and posted frequent updates on Twitter.
.
"Killers continue to ruthlessly wrap bottlenose dolphins into nets and
drag them to the shore for selection," one update said.
.
Another, a few minutes later, said, "Panicked, frightened, and fatigued,
another portion of the bottlenose pod is driven closer to the shore."
.
"Killers and trainers tore half of the pod apart today, and will finish
tomorrow," was the final post on the day's hunt.
.
Caroline Kennedy, who was sworn in last year as the U.S. ambassador to
Japan, tweeted her condemnation of the process.
