Sample letter 1

Dear Mr/ Ms:
I am outraged by the annual brutal slaughter of whales and dolphins that takes place in Japan. The images of bloody red water clearly show the world that Japan has little respect for the state of the world's oceans and for the conservation of the marine resources it claims to support.
Many scientific studies show that the oceans are in decline. We must take whatever actions are necessary to stop their over-exploitation and to protect the creatures that live in them. These whales and dolphins do not belong to Japan. The status of the species of whales and dolphins that you kill are either endangered, threatened, or unknown. It is an unthinkable waste that they will likely end up as a meat product or deceptively sold as whale meat, polluted with toxic levels of mercury and cadmium, killing people that eat it. It is tragic and unacceptable that the remaining dolphins that are not killed will end up destined for death in an aquarium, water park, or captive dolphin program.
In addition, the methods used to kill these animals are cruel. Corralling the whales and dolphins into bays, then making them suffer a long and painful death by spears, hooks, and drowning is an inhumane way of fishing. This action is disgraceful and has caused much disappointment in the international community.
We demand that Japan permanently and immediately renounce and stop this slaughter. We will work diligently to bring this issue to international light until you have ceased your reprehensible violence.

Sincerely,

Dear Mr/ Ms:
I was appalled to hear that Japanese fishers are trapping and slaughtering dolphins for six months every year in Taiji. Terrorizing the dolphins with underwater sound, the fishers herd the dolphins into a killing cove close to Taiji. Many of these beautiful, majestic creatures die during the chase, which can last eight hours or more. Please do whatever is in your power to stop this horrific slaughter today.

Dear Mr/ Ms:

I recently heard about the documentary film The Cove and was alarmed to find out that more than 20,000 dolphins and porpoises are brutally killed each year off the coast of Japan. In addition, Japanese consumers are being sold dolphin meat, containing dangerously high levels of mercury, often labeled as whale meat.

I ask that you urge the Japanese government to revoke permits that allow Japan's Fisheries Agency to continue this heinous, dangerous and illegal practice.

I'm a also urge the International Whaling Commission includes the proper management of dolphins and porpoises and a comprehensive plan to stop the slaughter of dolphins in Japan.
