Japanese whaling goes to the dogs

The Whale and Dolphin Conservation Society reports that Japanese whale meat surpluses are so overflowing that whale meat is now being sold as dog food.

The WDCS rightly points out that this puts “paid” to the sham of Japanese “scientific” whaling. And Japanese scientists who actually try to defend this program will show themselves to not have a lot more scientific integrity than Korean geneticists.

If my guess is correct that Western dietetic influences account for the decline in human whale consumption in Japan, I guess our food is good for a few things once in a while after all.
