Another Albino Dolphin Captured at Taiji Cove

Taiji albino 2


Japanese hunters at the infamous Taiji Cove captured a pod of Risso’s dolphins over the weekend — the fifteenth pod of Risso’s caught this season. Sea Shepherd reports that within the pod was a rare albino dolphin, highly prized by the hunters for onselling to aquariums. While the albino and one other dolphin were retained for sale, eleven other members of the pod were immediately slaughtered under the cover of tarps. Three baby Risso’s dolphins who were part of the family group were then taken back out to sea and abandoned to fend for themselves.
