just saw this. i don't know if cows are smart, can be trained to do tricks or not.

all i do know is that there are cultures who hunt whales and dolphins, including the inuits, who are u.s. citizens.
i would never hunt or eat a dolphin.
but i'm no more going to tell someone else what they can and can't eat, just like i don't want anyone worrying about what i eat.

canadians, icelanders, greenlanders, norwegians, russians, etc, etc engage in whale or dolphin hunting.

at any rate, i don't agree with senseless killings like the poor giraffe, but that's a far cry from subsistence hunting, or hunting by aboriginal peoples, or people who hunt for both food and because they wish to maintain their cultural ways
if the dolphins or whales are endangered or protected, obviously the IWC would step in.
