156 long-finned pilot whales were slaughtered at Trongisvágsfirði in Suðuroy last night.
Dolphins do not need to be killed to support the Faroese population – indeed the level of contaminant burden is so high that consumption of the meat is harming the population.
So whilst the Faroese community has many wonderful traditions, it’s time to let this one go.

@sgloscouncil Just been to Parkway pop up site and would be happy to move to the EU model and take my own refuse to a centre and not pay #suez strikers at all but paying my tax to queue right across the car park to drop off waste which is not collected does frustrate the hell out of people.

Whether tourists see it or not, this is the reality. Choosing not to #VisitFaroes will add to the pressure needed to put an end to these hunts.
Herding whales and dolphins to shore with motorboats and helicopters is not traditional.

The Ambassador Ambition ship was docking in the Faroe Islands on Sunday and passengers could only sit and watch as residents slaughtered 78 dolphins.

Horrified British cruise ship tourists watched as at least 77 whales were slaughtered on a Faroe Islands beach.
They witnessed nearly 50 boats and a helicopter drive the large pod of pilot whales, including tiny calves, towards the shore during the hunt on Sunday.
#StopTheGrind So #AmbassadorCruise passengers saw a #Grindadrap on 6th June too. It was where the baby #PilotWhale with the foetal folds was killed along with 62 other #PilotWhales & they still went there yesterday when their ship was docked in view of a Grind, 💷💷 over MORALS
#FaroeIslands snip of the min they got the #PilotWhales to the beach, so disgraceful. It's NOT for FREE MEAT, they got 140 tons of it from the last #Grindadrap enough to feed any who eat it for 10MONTHS. It's their nasty #Tradition it has no place in society today #StopTheGrind
#FaroeIslands They got the #Pilotwhales, they are being slaughtered now, they don't need to do this, they don't need FREE FOOD. When will our Government who do a trade deal worth BILLIONS of £ stand up and say ENOUGH!! #StopTheGrind
