This project is performed based on the three activities.
1 Survey on dolphin hunting and interview with the concerned parties 2 Remote broadcast of dolphin hunting 3 Write and publish a book on dolphin hunting
1 Survey on dolphin hunting and interview with the concerned parti
During the peak of dolphin hunting period (from September 1, 2020 to the end of February, 2021), I will conduct survey the dolphin hunting and interview with the concerned parties to collect the information 5 times in total and for more than 50 days I will establish the evidence that can persuade the society to realize the release of dolphins in the future.”
2 Live broadcast of dolphin hunting
I perform live broadcast via social media on the day of dolphin hunting to deliver what happens on the spot to Japan and the world. *No dolphin hunting is conducted on a heavy-weather day The live broadcast was performed via social media for 12 days in total during the hunting period from 2018 to 2019, and for 14 days in total during the hunting period from 2019 to 2020. I actually felt that more people know the actual condition of dolphin hunting thanks to this live broadcast. I will perform much more live broadcasts to increase people who know the actual condition of dolphin hunting.”
3 Write and publish a book on dolphin hunting
I will write the book at the same time as survey, interview and live broadcast. (The image of book, it will be published in the digital version.) This book is intended to make suggestion to the evidence why dolphins should be released and the future.
In Japan, there is no book written in a critical position regarding dolphin hunting. I write a book that may be an important trigger in the history of dolphin release in Japan based on our collected information, materials and experiences. After the hunting period finishes, I will refine the sentences many times and publish it by the autumn 2021.
