A Bangor woman who witnessed the aftermath of a “brutal” dolphin drive hunt that saw 100 bottlenose’s slaughtered is urging the Faroese to end the cruel tradition this World Dolphin Day.
Aileen McClenaghan travelled to the Faro Islands this summer with Sea Shepherd, which has been shining a light on the ongoing slaughter of more than one species of dolphin by islanders.
The marine charity has launched its first World Dolphin Day to mark the one year anniversary of the largest single slaughter of cetaceans in recorded history - when 1,428 pilot wales were killed in shocking scenes on the Faroe Islands on September 12, 2021.
