Denmark is a big shame- The sea is stained in red and in the mean while it’s not because of the climate effects of nature.

• what the.............

• Total cruelty and brutality act... hate it

• I think we should cut the people of Denmark with hocks 1, 2 or 3 times and let them die in there own blood!

  • then doesn't that make you as cruel as them

  • Grow the fuck up, you violent bitch.

  • Its not in Denmark for fuck sake!

  • Вылетем на рассвете 2 пары SU-34/// Бомбить их...

• I think we should cut the people of Denmark 1, 2, or 3 times with thick hocks and let them die in there own blood!

• no comment it horrible :(

• MY god i would do this to them those bustards, my god this is worst then canibalism,....

• This should be stopped immediately but how many of you would also stop eating beef, pork, chiken and fishes. They are animals too and being killed every hour just for human pleasure.

  • There is a reason they are grown.. for food. This is different, this is MURDER. These are animals that are going extinct. We do respect your idealism of being a vegetarian so do also respect ours by not shoving your idealism in our faces :) Plants are living things to. Who knows how they feel when we eat them?

  • Except that cows and chickens aren't extinct....

  • Except that cows and chickens aren't endangered species...

  • For human pleasure, or for consumption? It is not a sin to partake in animals. Sure mass genocide to a dying race is sick but can you even compare it to something we have mass amounts of? Honestly, I could live without meat but who is stupid enough to do that? Why, so I would have to take supplements for the iron and protein I am missing everyday? Yeah, no thank you.

    • The only reason there are mass amounts of animals used as food is because humans breed them for food. There would not be mass amounts existing naturally. Vegans and vegetarians generally only need supplements for b-12, so get your facts straight. Also, many meat eaters are deficient in b-12 also because b-12 is from bacteria. As for meat eating being a sin, there are many references in the bible stating to abstain from meat.

  • .. actually, no one would stop eating those animals since we used to eat it. well, what happened in Denmark is a crime since there's a universal law and i don't law is i just happened to know that killing a whale is a crime. now there's no law objecting the killing of cows, chickens and any other related animals. i guess that justify it!

    • You're right.

  • cows pigs and the other animals we butcher are not near extinction

  • @Vegetarian: I would just like to state for the record that if humans, or other meat eaters, didn't eat other animals (such as cows) then the world would die. Now I am not just saying this, it is a known thing. If we just let animals that eat vegetation like grass and plants just eat then there would be nothing like that left in the area. (As I am saying this I would just like to make it clear that I am talking many, many years; I'm not saying it would happen straight away). It would become a wasteland. Therefore meat eaters are just balancing out the eco-system. Also I agree with 'really now?' I will respect your views being a vegetarian, I know how you feel about it, I used to be one too but since cutting meat and stuff out of my diet made me really ill I kind of have to eat meat. But anyway, if people eat meat then they eat meat. I don't feel it is right when people try to change others. But I also agree with you, it does need to be stopped; it is dreadful but my last point is that these dolphins are being killed for the sake of it; there is no reason why it is being done. Other animals like cows, pigs, chicken etc. are bred for food. Many years ago before farming men used to just hunt food from the wild, it is nature. Our ancestors did it and now we do it. It's been passed down as something we need to do. We just have a lazier yet more efficient way to do things.

    • Just showing both sides- I'm not sure you have shown both sides. You are saying how animals now are bred for food, so doesn't that mean if we stopped breeding them in such mass quantities that they wouldn't eventually take over and eat all the vegetation? I'm actually a meat eater myself but I buy locally because of the ridiculousness of factory farming. As a nation, we do not NEED to have factory farms which hold hundreds of thousands of a given animal. We do not NEED them to be tortured in those factories so we can enjoy bacon cheeseburgers. Our ancestors NEEDED meat to survive, but today we have a ton of options besides factory farmed meat that we don't have to rely on them to produce our meat. I get it- we have a large population that demands meat, but at the cost of the environment and the animals in these factories, it's not worth it. We should be trying to revert back to the old ways of farming, spread the wealth to local farmers instead of companies like Tyson. We've dehumanized the animals we eat- we are so far removed from the process now that it's normal for us to get our pork from the grocery store without any care on how it got there. We need to appreciate the process a lot more because at the end of the day, smart animals are being brutalized for our need for consumption. I'm not trying to change you, but I hope you can look at it in a different way and see that what we do in North America (if this is where you are from) so we can all eat meat 3 times a day isn't really right.
      On another note, this is obviously brutal and intolerable. I hope this reaches enough powerful people to have International animal rights laws kick in to ban this celebration.

      • I agree with you Melanie, I just wish it were affordable for all families to buy from local farmers. Unfortunately, it's not. I would love nothing more than to buy my meat from a rancher who slaughters the livestock in the most humane way possible, but on a limited income budget (like the majority of American families) I must resort to buying what I can afford...at the grocery store. Trust me when I say, I DO have a care on how it got there, just not any other realistic options for feeding my family. Oh ya, and this isn't so I can eat meat 3 meals a day. Try most are happy to get meat at 1 meal a day! VERY SAD,, but this is reality, not a perfect fantasy world.

        • The "tradition" of slaughtering these beautiful creatures for sport, has nothing to do with vegan/meat eaters. There is no comparison, so why do we always have to get off the true subject and take the focus away from where it needs to be? All that making it a comparison to our food supply does is minimize the importance of the message and does the people trying to raise awareness to this monsterous act, an incredible disservice. If you feel strongly about the issue, and agree with the people trying to help, then don't be a hinderance...find a productive, POSITIVE way to help!

        • Its not affordable because its not sustainable, even with the highest subsidies of all food in the USA, meat is still uneconomic.

    • Somebody is up to scratch on their grade 9 ecology...Yay school!

    • Eating a plant based diet saves land, all of those acres of land that is used to grow plant food for animal agriculture, which is converted inefficiently into nutrition via meat. We breed the animals for food, so if we didn't eat them they would not exist, the land saved could be given back to support wildlife, endangered indigenous species rather than artificially supported stock animals. Meat eating is also the major cause of climate change, water and air pollution and even oppression of small-scale local farmers and indigenous people by land-grabbing agricultural western multinationals who are running out of land in their own countries. Basically the Earth cannot sustain us if we continue to eat meat, even though in the USA 90% of food animals are now raised in CAFOs (confined animal feed operations) where they see no pasture and are fed on highly processed feed, and pumped full of hormones and drugs, they still need to steal land from South America and Africa, also for the water resources that come with the land. Sea ocean temperatures have been linked to the severity of tropical storms, cause climate change, biggest factor animal agriculture. You say you don't want people to try to change others, but then you are happy to impose the consequences of your choices on the 65 billion land animals slaughtered each year, and 2 trillion fish, as well as the environmental damage and oppression of people that comes with animal agriculture. And don't be fooled by the marketing of humane methods, the sheer scale of the meat industry prevents this, with workers barely able to keep up with the slaughter lines..And then there is the human health cost. A recent UN study found that 70% of human disease is traceable to animal agriculture,linked to our global supply methods and reliance on pharmaceutcials. Then there are the direct affect on our health from a diet based on meat - we are seeing unprecedented rises in heart disease, atherosclerosis, obesity, diabetes, all with proven links to eating animal products.

  • Um, no, they are not kill just for pleasure, they provide us nutrition. I know you like to think that everyone in the world should be exactly like you, but sorry, it doesn't work that way. Some of us likes to eat meat. If you want to be a vegetarian, fine, feel free to do what you like, stop trying to force your way onto everyone else. We are not killing cows and chickens for fun, we are making use of their meat and their skins...

• This is really sad story to see here, as far as I studied on Wiki and other portals, this (killing of whale) is a tradition in Denmark....

  • does that mean if our tradition includes eating human flesh, then that would be allowed since its part of our tradition and culture.,Just saying

    • Can't simply rely on hypotheticals...it so happens our tradition is not to be cannibals, so your point is invalid. I am not saying that to condone killing animals as a ritual, because that is wrong. But if you're going to use examples to support your belief, make sure they make sense first. First, God said to Adam and Eve after sin entered the earth that we were aloud to kill and eat animals for food...so these arguments from vegetarians about animal cruelty are ridiculous. But I do agree that killing animals for fun, ivory, fur, etc is very cruel indeed. But you can't compare this to "legalizing cannibalism lmao...you truly made yourself sound like an idiot

      • Are you using the bible as a evidence? Here's one. How could Eve know that eating the forbidden fruit was wrong? If sin came after she ate it.

        • Because the bible states that God told Adam and Eve that they could eat from every tree but one- the one that they subsequently ate from and were cast out of the Garden of Eden for. If you are going to ask a question do your homework first...

    • Jonna Mae, I don't see where Ekendra Lamsal is saying that it is allowed, he's only pointing out that this happens often due to tradition.

      • Thanks for pointing out. Many of the visitors have signed the petition on this. Sadly, such traditions occur in other countries too. I've include one other such link at the beginning of the article.

  • it used to be traditional to keep slaves, to oppress women, persecute gays...we have become more enlightened, time to evolve with the rest of us and not use tradition or culture as an excuse. The real reason is always money.

• oh my god!!!

• <word-removed> of dude!!
  Affno deshh ma Gadhimai mella heree bhaihalccha ni.. why go so far..
