Former dolphin hunter leads dolphin watch and encounters friendly sperm whale.Izumi Ishii was once head of the dolphin hunters in Futo, Japan but one day he heard the cry of a dying dolphin and it changed him. So he began a dolphin watching business. BlueVoice.org supported his work and Hardy Jones was aboard for the first expedition. Ishii's vessel sailed for four hours with no luck and he was in danger of bringing back the tourists and the press with a failure. But then a huge sperm whale appeared - and it turned out to be friendly, lingering around the boat for 45 minutes. Ishii's transformation from dolphin hunter to dolphin tour operator makes him more money than his pervious business and has taken thousands of Japanese to see whales and dolphins. It shows that dolphin watching can replace dolphin killing. For more information go to http://www.bluevoice.org. Hardy Jones is co-founder of BlueVoice.org with Ted Danson. Friendly Whale
Experience being amidst a pod of spotted dolphins in the Bahamas, listen to their complex clicks and whistles. Imagine what they are experiencing and communicating. Filmed by BlueVoice (BlueVoice.org)This video was shot among a school of friendly spotted dolphins in the Bahamas. Hardy Jones has been working with these dolphins since 1978 and knows many of them personally - some for as long as 25 years. This long term relationship between humans and dolphins shows that interaction between two large brained species is possible. We have also been able to witness the dolphins' high intelligence, sociability and friendliness toward us. We have used computers to interact with them. Details at http://bluevoice.org/sections/dolphins/communication.shtml. This is a video to stimulate your imagination. What is it like to be a dolphin. Let the sounds enter your mind without judgment. See where it takes you. Among Dolphins

A music video for an original song I composed http://tinyurl.com/ynqppdI'd already produced the song. Then I discovered one or two videos with scenes that reminded me of what I was trying to express in the song, i.e. where dolphins could one day reach the stars and explore the galaxy with humans. So I decided to experiment to see if I could piece a music video together. I've tried to weave a story in the video (it's purely fictional; I'm not trying to be scientific here): A star, from the seas of space, falls onto earth and encounters intelligent life--the dolphins--in the oceans. Then the star carries the dolphins to space, flowing along the ebbs of space and time. Eventually the star returns to earth again.**********A special mention to BlueVoice.Org, for their work in promoting awareness about Dolphins, whales and ocean environmental issues. Please visit their website at http://www.BlueVoice.org**********CREDITS & ACKNOWLEDGMENTS--------------------------I spent many hours searching for videos with suitable scenes. I've considered the guidelines regarding copyright and Dolphins Galaxia...

This video produced by bluevoice.org explains the awful truth about dolphins in captivity and the cruel and horrific methods used to get them from the wild and vastness of the ocean to a concrete tank for show.Japan annually hunts (slaughters) dolphins in what's known as a drive hunt or a drive fishery.Japanese fisherman drive the dolphins close to shore by banging and creating noise on the side of their boats that interfere with the dolphins complex sonar communication system and confuse them.They then round them into shallow bays and then proceed to (not always, depending on the location) inflect incredible pain and ultimate death on the highly social highly intelligent marine mammals by stabbing them with spears and other similar objects.Most will end up in sushi bars or on supermarket shelves. But some lucky or unlucky ones will have their lives spared to be destined for a life in captivity. To live in an alien world from their own in a concrete tank forced to do common tricks for a public that is purposefully mislead by the facts.Violently capturing wild dolphins from their home and killing them for meat and to be housed in captivity is one of the most immoral, wrongful, cruel, horrific and shameful acts human beings can display towards animals.What god given right do we have to do such a thing? none!!! that's what.It's absolutley disgisting and a complete crime to encase them in a tank so small their up and down one end in two and half seconds. Dolphins are built for speed and were designed to jump and swim miles a day.Please take the time to educate yourself about captive animals and do not patronize the bad institutions who exploit them without any hesitation remorse or guilt. Do not provide the financial incentive for this disgusting act to continue, the dolphins are counting on you.Please support Blue Voice's vital work and other conservation groups such as the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society who are actively involved in stopping this horrific and completely unnecessary act of cruelty towards dolphins.Please visit their websites today.www.bluevoice.orgwww.seashepherd.orgPlease visit my blog on my profile as well for my fair and balanced review of marine mammals in captivity.This video was uploaded with permission from Hardy Jones President & Founder of Blue Voice.Thank You Dolphins In...

When Hardy Jones first witnessed and documented the slaughtering of dolphins in Japan in 1979, he knew he had to do something to stop it. But when the world whaling commission sanctions more dolphin killing to make up for lost whale harvests and there is the risk of offending Japanese culture and tradition, the task is not a simple one. Almost thirty years since Hardy started on his mission to save dolphins, much has been accomplished, but there is still work to be done. Join Hardy as he travels to Japan and shows us how we can help - just by visiting www.bluevoice.org. WHEN DOLPHINS...
