#StopTheGrind
The first #Grindadráp of the summer is set to begin in #Leynasandur , #FaroeIsland.
Once again, hundreds of #dolphins will be killed in the name of tradition. As every year, our crew is there to expose and report on the #slaughter.
These animals are not killed for survival, but for custom—by one of the richest nations on Earth. This has to stop.
- Paul Watson Foundation
We're back in the #FaroeIslands, not just to witness it, but to connect, to document, and to shine a light on what’s still happening and why it must end.

Stop the Cruel Dolphin and Whale Hunts in the Faroe Islands
Over 850 pilot whales were hunted last year alone, and since the turn of the century, more than 20,000 cetaceans — pilot whales, white-sided dolphins, and bottlenose dolphins — have been massacred off the Faroese shore.
A Grind has been called on the #FaroeIslands.
A pod of white sided #dolphins estimated to be 200 individuals will be driven and killed today.
The crew are on ground to document, follow #SeaShepherd Føroyar FB page for updates today.

Why do we need your support❓
Because international pressure is pivotal in advocating for change. Public, policy, and corporate pressures all influence how the Faroese government and stakeholders view this issue.

The tragic slaughter of 90 pilot whales in Hvalvik, #FaroeIslands —and a staggering❗592❗in just 8 weeks—demands our immediate action.
'There is no easy solution to ending this cruelty. The older generation of whalers are holding on to their traditional killing like their lives depend on it, and they are doing their best to inspire the younger generation to join in.' - Valentina Crast, Shepherd's Faroe Islands Campaign Lead

Faroe: END THIS CRUEL HUNT 🐬
Every summer, the Faroe Islands’ beaches are soaked with #whale and #dolphin blood as hundreds of these majestic creatures are needlessly slaughtered.
Fishers in boats circle the whales and dolphins, driving them into shallow waters before killing them with knives.
The government says it is an Indigenous tradition that feeds families on the islands, but only a handful of locals consume whale and dolphin meat yet they kill over 1000 a year.
