Travel decision


There are a lot of countries in the world that sound interesting to visit. Norway and Japan are two that have been on my list for a long time. But every now and then I read that Norway and Japan continue to hunt whales. If you have seen the movie The Cove, you will also learn more about Japan's hunt of bottlenose dolphins. Those that aren't sold for 5-6 figures to commercial aquariums are herded around the corner and killed. The meat is toxic so it tends to be mis-labeled and then sold as whale meat. Lovely.
