Trailer for a documentary, entitled The Cove.  ”The cove” is hidden in a national park in Taiji, Japan.  Each year, they trap thousands and thousands of dolphins.  They keep the pretty, more appealing dolphins, and slaughter the rest in.  The dolphins kept are sold to dolphin trainers, in an open cove (where the public can watch,) and flown all over the world.  While, the dolphins to be slaughtered are taken to a hidden cove surrounded on three sides by steep cliffs.  The entire process is being controlled by the Japanese government, and they monitor it closely.  The meat of the dolphins is kept and sold to unknowing citizens.  However, the meat contains incredibly high amounts of mercury.
