Those dolphins were suffering BIG TIME from the looks of things and are probably FAR more aware of situation due to higher inteligence. That one being dragged behind the truck seemed like it was still alive although just barely.
That video is sick, they could have killed them MUCH faster then they did.

I agree that it could be, and should be done quicker. No need to make an animal suffer. When if you're going to do something slowly to an animal may it be to have it grill over a BBQ after it's passed.
That said, my question of this being a one off incident, or common place still goes unanswered. I'm don't think it's fair to condem an entire economic sector, and people's lives, and jobs over the actions of a few. If the rest of the hunt is indeed done humainely then why protest it? If you shut it down, those clowns would more than likely keep up what they are doing.
Show me it's an industry problem, not one video and some blood.
I'll agree that what happened in the video is gross, disgusting, and should NOT be supported. However demonstrate the link between the video and petition.
