Update From 'The Cove' in Taiji Japan

Ric O’Barry, the activist featured in 2010 Academy Award-winning documentary The Cove, checks in on Huffington Post with some horrible stories from Japan. In Taiji, the city where the documentary was filmed, O’Barry reports that 24 dolphins who were kept in pens by Japanese fisherman were dashed to death on the rocks during the tsunami.

O’Barry also posted the video above, which his team from SaveJapanDolphins.org, stationed 700 miles north of Taiji in Iwate Prefecture, shot near the epicenter of the tragedy.
