The article that I read said that they do it alot and the fisherman dont mind as they think its good luck.
cheaky whale shark ! It is great for them that indonesian think is good luck, they don't end up being kill ![]()
Those guy's they don't have any limits dolphins, whales of any kind, sharks...something need to be done for good it is a constant battle eh!, sucks ![]()
Support those guys.... they are trying hard! More than we can say about our jellyfish env. minister!!!!
I say we should kill and eat the fkn lot.
Dolphins, whales, sharks, everything.
I don't see a reason why not, so long as its 'sustainable'
That will control the ocean population.

Yea, I was glad to see that as well I have seen pics of jap finners with whale shark fins tho, makes me so angry.
Sorry fellas. Go to most markets in Indo and you can buy whale shark meat.
Local delicacy Im afraid. Not long ago the greeny's released some video of small ones for sale, they were stil alive in small tanks in markets in east Java.
When you are hungry you will eat anything and these guys have been eating em long before we decided they needed protection.
If an Indo fisherman has to make a choice between feeding his family and protecting a whale shark Im afraid there is only one choice for him and the whale shark loses that argument.
Not sayin its right just that is the norm for them.

dolphins and whales are 'cute' and 'intelligent' so apparently therefore their lives have a higher value...that's what it boils down to.
another way to see it is as one big load of hypocrisy
