This isnโ€™t progress, don't be fooled. Itโ€™s a huge step backwards.

One of Galicia's traditional dishes is octopus, and with their population decreasing due to overfishing, this is the only solution they came up with. Remember that if there isn't demand, there won't be any market.

Galicia's government has just approved an experimental octopus farm, backed by seafood giant Profand. 

Framed as "scientific innovation" this project paves the way for the large scale industrial farming of one of the ocean's most intelligent and emotionally complex animals.

Octopuses are solitary beings - they don't live in colonies. Forcing them into crowded tanks causes extreme stress, suffering, and often aggression. 

They solve puzzles, use tools, and feel pain. Locking them into tanks for profit is not innovation - it's torture and exploitation.

Meanwhile, countries like the U.S., Canada, and even Spain's canary islands are moving to ban octopus farming. 

Galicia is moving backwards.

It was confirmed yesterday that Hvalur hf will not hunt fin whales this summer ๐Ÿ’™

According to Kristjรกn Loftsson, itโ€™s because of the situation with the Japanese markets (no buyers) as well as the tariff race which is not improving the situation.

We celebrate these news and are happy to know that fin whales will not be hunted in Iceland for the second year in a row ๐Ÿ‹

The image shows a suspended whale model in a museum corridor, accented by blue duotones. It aims to indicate the ocean's essence, supporting marine life awareness. The blend of architecture and color fosters a serene, reflective atmosphere.

This is a battle we cannot afford to lose. If we allow this to happen, we may never be able to undo the damage. The #ocean has been taken for granted for too long, but we can still act, now.

Thanks to a legal #loophole in #USLaw, deep-sea mining in international waters has just become one step closer to reality, and the consequences for #MarineEcosystems could be catastrophic.

 A new #GreenpeaceUK investigation exposed a brutal reality: since #Brexit, giant #SuperTrawlers have spent 37,000 hours fishing inside the #UK โ€™s Marine Protected Areas (MPAs). Thatโ€™s the equivalent of 4 years and 3 months killing every single hour a day. Destroying #habitats and wiping out #fish populations, all while the UK government does nothing to stop them.

A new #FactoryFarming nightmare is unfoldingโ€”#seafood giant #GrupoProfand just got the green light to experiment on baby octopuses in #Spain.

Their goal? Cracking the code on captive breeding to pave the way for the worldโ€™s first #OctopusFarm.

This new lab will experiment on baby #octopuses by manipulating their larval developmentโ€”a critical hurdle that has prevented octopus farming from scaling up. ๐Ÿ™

@mongabay Excellent article on the lack of protection in some 'Marine Protected Areas'.

The park proposed transferring them to a facility in #Kobe, Japan, despite Japanโ€™s well-known weak animal welfare regulations.. French Minister Agnรจs Pannier-Runacher and animal rights groups like #OneVoice strongly oppose this.

A court ruling on their future is pending, but advocates demand that these #orcas be sent to #SeaSanctuaries to live out their lives in dignity.

We must continue emptying all the tanks!

This caretaker government, after losing the #election, is using its last days to benefit its allies. These permits must be revokedโ€”#whales deserve protection, not political betrayal.

We need your voiceโ— Comment below to help raise awarenessโ€”together, we can make sure these actions donโ€™t go unnoticed. โœŠ
