The Horrible Whale and Dolphin Massacre tradition of Faroe Islands in Denmark
You would think that the first world countries in Europe such as Denmark would never succumbed itself to i killing dolphins and whales just because its a tradition? How barbaric are these people? Well lets just say that upon my research of this infamous tradition, I stumbled upon tons of sites that tackles this horrible massacre of the whales and dolphins, and take note “WITH PICTURES” (Read: horrible graphics). When I first saw the pics I thought it was a hoax but upon reading articles about it on credible news sites, I can’t believe my eyes that this barbarism is happening in another country, which is far more progressive compared to ours. I, one time shed a tear upon looking at the pics because it was really horrible. The people look on, saying nothing, as if it was some kind of entertainment or a circus to behold on to. The worst, there were children everywhere. I previously wrote about a series here in Brother Sun, Sister Moon which featured extinct animals caused by mans’ slaughtering and hunting. Well I guess it won’t be long till the pilot whales of Faroe Island would be seen only in pages of books. Take a look at the pictures after the jump, its really horrible
The owner of this photograph (above) posted this pic on his flickr account and seems to be proud of his achievements because he even justified that people are going and commenting on his photos because they are fantastic. What this amateur photographer doesnt know is that he is being branded by people all over the world as sick, insensitive and barbaric just like most of his fellows in Faroe Island are. Hi is totally clueles just like his fellow islanders. I dont know what this photographer will feel like if instead of blodied whales lying on the shore, its their own ghastly bodies that are slaughtered to pieces… FYI, this photograph was forwarded to me via email… and the man who claimed I posted this without permision is as deluded as his tradition! This photo is taken by Adolf Hitler! LOL
Why are they Killing the Whales and Dolphins?
Whale and Dolphin hunting has been the tradition of the inhabitants of Faroe Islands (located in Denmark) since the 10th century. And most of the descendants of the medieval whalers have passed this tradition from Generations to Generations. For the record, there are 17 villages in the Island that have these kind of scenario every year which are authorized to conduct such massacre. After killing the whales in methods so gruesome, the villages part take the meat of their hunt and distribute them among the inhabitants. And because sometimes meat are abundant, some carcasses of the killed whales and dolphins are laid to waste and rot over the shores. The inhabitants use the whale meat for food because it is one of their staple diet. But recently, a law was passed in the area stating that whale meat consumption must only be once every two weeks because of high levels of mercury, insecticides and other poisons contained in it.
This Tradition has met worldwide outrage and criticism that even Greenpeace Activists tried to stop this from ever occurring again. But the islanders insist that the outsiders doesn’t know the implication of this tradition to their identity and culture as Faroe islanders. Activists however argued that during the medieval times, Faroe islanders have shortage of food compare to this time of ours that food is abundant already in the Island and that using tradition as an excuse for the slaughter of these gentle animals is truly unacceptable. If they were sharks, I don’t think they stand a chance in staging such massacre. I am reminded by this of primitive Mexico prior to the apparition of the Virgin in Guadalupe, wherein people are sacrificed on the altar and their hearts taken from their bodies as a “traditional” sacrifice to the serpent god. The only difference between Mexico and Faroe Island is the time and era. But practically they have the same kind of barbarism in their blood.
Being a Franciscan at heart, we were taught that all animals are our brothers and sisters and that men should show love for all things and creatures created by God. If St. Francis were alive today, he would probably preach on the shores on Faroe island with whales and dolphins as his listeners. For truly, Faroe islanders are more bestial than the gentle beasts themselves.
BTW, I forgot to mention, newly born and baby whales and dolphins are also not spared from this massacre.
OTWOMD condemns these foolish traditions and acts of atrocities towards animals.

Oh my God!! halos bumaliktad ang sikmura ko while reading this post..Tradition? that’s their reason? it’s a pathetic reason because what they’re doing is barbaric. I wouldn’t be surprised if a lot of these people will get sick because of the higher mercury content of what they’re eating.

kapatid naisend na rin ito sa email ko. Haays ansakit sa dibdib.
medyo complicated nga talaga once tradition na ang pinag-usapan. pero kung gagawa talaga ng paraan at pagtutulungan, sigurado mahihinto din ang kasamaan na yan. Parang foot-binding sa China diba since ~950 AD pa yun pero na-abolish din. Kelangan lang din talaga mag-set ng boundaries between tradition and barbarism.

Well my two cents are:
I guess the island is full of impotent people for which they have to prove by slaughtering innocent creatures in the name of ritual.
I so think Viagra has a huge potential in these islands as the only way to stop this massacre.
Shame on them and also on world peace-keepers for celebrating the Silence.
Now I know why did nt they chose Sharks instead lol

ALL ANIMALS SHOULD BE FREE FROM THIS MADNESS! All of them! No animals should be exploited by us, especially not in this day and age! Encourage abolitionism, it’s the only way things will ever change. Don’t be down, keep yourselves happy, strong, and active for animals, and someday (though maybe not in our lifetimes) the good in our species will win out and this can be a better place.

Well my appeal to all is STOP EATING ANIMALS/ FISH / BIRDS . . . why are you so disturbed by this killing ??? Because you are seeing the Photographs of these . . . the same thing takes place at the Slaughter house of all the Super stores where you buy meat/ pork./ lamb/ fish / chicken/ cattle/ etc . . . Do GREEN PEACE go and protest there ???
So are these people who slaughter for your food IMPOTENT ? No? then these who are doing slaughter for the same purpose may be not ?
Killing another animal for satifying your hunger itself is a horrible thing . . . please stop this . . .

Those people should have their hands cut off – Fucken Animals… these are not humans… these are cowards. hiding behind a tradition to slaughter helpless animals.

First of all Feroe islands are not in Denmark, they are under the non-governing monarchy of Denmark, and they are as sovereign as Greenland and eve have their own laws.
The Danish government definitely could do something about it, and I really don’t understand why they haven’t.
I hope these images that are now circulating through the internet help do something about it…
And please people, keep this in perspective, there is a handful of injustice being spread around the world, to children, older people, animals and even our environment so don’t judge all DANISH people for it… that would like judging all AMERICAN people for Iraq, eventhough after 9/11 they begged for revenge… anyways… KEEP YOUR PERSPECTIVE!

don’t you compare mexico with these feronese tradition. first of all because prehispanic mesoamerican sacrifices where an honour to the sacrificed person. he or she was very willing to do this for his or her god. and it was one sacrifice in a long period of time. and secondly, because every culture, even you’re own, (whichever it is) has prooven to have barbaric demonstrations of violence against other people and animals at some period. specially if you’re from the states, where that culture has bombed baghdad not a very long time ago, killing hundreds of civilians. I know my culture has commited a lot of violent agressions against life. starting with the conquest of the indian population in mexico. i’m not proud of it. but that has been left in the past. so what i’m trying to say is that your phrases:”The only difference between Mexico and Faroe Island is the time and era. But practically they have the same kind of barbarism in their blood” are waaay out of context, they show ignorance, and frankly,as a mexican i’m offended to have the name of my country related to this brutal extermination of innocent beings.

I am horrified. My continent, Africa, is supposedly barbaric and uncivilised, so how can “first world” so how can called “advanced” European society behave in such a despicable manner? It’s BARBARIC to kill beautiful creatures for the fun and excitement of an age-old ritual. The government of Denmark should hand their collective heads in shame! The entire population of my beautiful city of Cape Town wept when 50 pilot whales beached here earlier this year and could not be saved. The Faroese should no longer be allowed to continue with this bloody tradition!

Yes we are all indeed disgusted and outraged that such a primitive tradition is allowed to continue aleit by a bunch of inbread deadbeats who’s only contribution to this planet is to CONSUME CONSUME CONSUME…Yes the “species” that perpetrates this atrocity should be dealt with as the virus they are and be “neutralised” but that’s probably an unrealistic expectation.

This is sick. Totally inhumane and unnecessary. To argue that this is done in tradition is utterly ridiculous not to mention deluded. Clearly they have no argument of a common food source any longer, given the laws that are now in place that are there only to protect their health – nice right? – Their government doesn’t want the people to get ill but they pass no laws prohibiting the actual killings.
The fact that their government does not control of such barbaric acts is a disgrace to the country. One would think that they would do so if not to see the abysmal cruelty ended, but to aid their tourism industry which I could only assume must be on a constant decline as a result of the worldwide attention this ghastly “tradition” is receiving. I know personally I love to travel, and after seeing this have no inclination to ever visit this place. Not only do I not want to step foot in such a terrible place, I wouldn’t sink my money into their tourism industry.
Those that partake should be ashamed of themselves, and parents who take their small children to view these massacres are sick and twisted.

I think the west, the so called civilized countries, need to think about who they call civilized. Imagine Iran, Afghanistan or China doing it. How will the Danish would react with outrage. Hypocrites to the core. Not to mention that what an outragious act supported by all of us. Why not consider sanctions against Denmark instead of Iran pursuing nuclear ambition which they may or may not use for anything destructive. We focus so much on posturing ourselves on political issues to sidestep other nations we do not like, but we ignore the sick and destructive acts of the countries we “like”. I am sure Denmark is one of the “liked” countries of the civilized world. Bravo.

It is very sickening and disturbing that there is no respect for wild life in the way these ‘barbaric sloths’ keep traditions that have no justifiable meaning today. If the meat is a staple exploit it like with cattle that are killed with a stun in the head, something that reduces unecessary suffering. I am somewhat glad that mercury is finding it’s way to their brains. Maybe there will be a point where there will only be stillborns or total infertility and at least these islands and places will be devoid of these ‘low-humans’.
