IRS990/Desc0JapanDuring the annual six-month dolphin drive season in Taiji, wild dolphins are driven into the Cove. Some are live-captured for the global dolphin entertainment industry, while others are cruelly slaughtered and sold as meat.Dolphin Project is the only independent body since 2003 to act as an observer to monitor the hunts in Taiji. While we are not permitted to intervene, our role is to document the hunts, track captures and slaughters, and in real time, broadcast to the world the goings-on here. With each new viewer, we are shifting the tide in how the public thinks about captivity. We also continue to support Japanese-based activists, who have kept the pressure on authorities to end the hunts.On April 22, 2022, Ren Yabuki, Director of Life Investigation Agency, in conjunction with Dolphin Project filed a lawsuit against the Town of Taiji over the redaction of information from public documents related to the handling of cetaceans. The lawsuit sought access to all documentation connected to the drive hunts, including:sales contracts and invoices for live cetacean commercedocuments related to the overseas export of live cetaceanscomplete inventories of cetaceans in possession of the Taiji Whale Museumdocumentation related to the dismantling of dead cetaceans by the Taiji Whale Museum, andinspection reports for the animals in possession by the Taiji Whale Museum
