There is a dolphin in my tuna!


There is dolphin in my tuna!

The Dolphin Safe Label: In cooperation with environmental organisations, the major tuna canneries in the USA have introduced and marketed the Tuna Safe Label . The irony of it is that this label only serves to inform that the tuna has not been caught by encircling techniques. Dolphin Safe does not mean that no dolphins were killed. Data from fisheries in the Philippines, Sri Lanka and the Bay of Biscay, where other techniques are used, suggest that the number of dolphins killed per ton of tuna may be from 7 to 17 times higher in other fisheries than in those of the Eastern Tropical Pacific.

pretty soon the planet won't worry about it. There will be Mass food shortages, and food will be food whether dolphins are eaten or not. It's a Sad reality
