Dear Friends:
I've been missing a few days by labor and study, but I'm back with many new features and topics to share with you that I will gradually published nowadays. On Sunday
caught my eye the 2010 Oscar award for best documentary at the film called "The Cove" which in English means "The Cove."
At first glance the title does not tell us much about the topic, however as the video runs we realize its meaning: This is a documentary report on what happens in Taiji and killing during several months is in a bay in Japan.
The narrator of the documentary is well known training in the world of dolphins, it was just beautiful coach "Flipper" program that aired for several.
However, behind the amazing world of television no one imagined a dolphin sad, depressed by the captivity which was submitted several years, who in the words of the same Richard O'Barry died by suicide, including many species which rely when intorelable life makes them.
you know that the stress of captivity they cause ulcers and other diseases to dolphins?
This is one of the many topics dealt with in the documentary, dealing with animals like dolphins, whales, orcas and the like in captivity in several aquariums in the world, compared to the feeling of freedom that by their very nature call.
Moreover, we have the marketing is done in the flesh of the dolphin, obtained under deplorable conditions, because the main objective is to find living species to be sold to aquariums, an activity that generates a profit of USD. 150,000 for each of them.
The dolphin meat is contaminated by mercury, so he is relieved several studies which leads to deformities, vision problems and memory, but little attention is the issue because we are not lacking unscrupulous low cloud or whale meat other species is marketed to the public. The biggest challenge
is: Why hunt the dolphin? The answer to this question is very broad, in Japan the justification has two points, the tradition and the decline of fish by fishermen alleged that his approach has caused the dolphins to feed on these species.
consider any two points is justified because if there is a worldwide decline in fish catch and only man has this responsibility, by the uncontrolled predation of the sea takes place, it is calculated that within 40 years to step in which we no longer exist marine species for food.
On the tape you can see the precise moment when the killing occurs in the bay, you can hear the sounds despair and anguish of the dying dolphins struggling to escape the nets and the destructive hands of men stained red while the coastal zone.
One of the highlights of the documentary that should be of concern for all Ecuadorians is the literal words of our country at the end of it, because it indicates that Ecuador was allied with Japan to seek lifting of the moratorium on hunting whale to the International Whaling Commission (IWC), which opposes particular the protectionist argument for several years are supposed to have had, which deserves an explanation for the satisfaction of all who live in this country, because remember that this documentary will be seen worldwide by many tourists and others who wish to visit our country.
The hour and a half-long documentary is shocking and very moving, for which I invite everyone to watch and discuss it at home or office, because I consider these issues as transcendental to the future of Ecuador and the world.
A hug for everyone.
