Panettiere’s Dolphin Fight Caught In Harsh Video

We’ve been covering Heores star Hayden Panettiere a lot this week; but wanted to share this video from the BBC of the star’s efforts to save the slaughter of thousands of dolphins in Japan. It’s a harsh, graphic look at what she’s fighting for — and the desperation of those on the other side that wish to avoid public attention.

I had no idea. And I was moved to tears. What is the point of the slaughter? Are dolphins food there? I think that too often we forget that animals are emotional creatures who feel pain just like we do. Pain and fear. My heart goes out to those surfers who are so brave. Thank you for posting this.
