1. The main defender is Rick O'Barry
3. Rick O'Barry became involved in saving dolphins when one of his dolphins, Kathy committed suicide.
5. Dolphins are in the mammalian order of cetacean.
7. Small islands in the Caribbean support whaling because the Japanese government pays them.
9. Some of the dolphins are stabbed to slow them down.
11. The main point of this move is to expose the dolphining in Taiji, which led to feeding the global population high concentrations of mercury, and pushing the dolphin population closer and closer to extinction.
13. Biomagnification: toxins present in an organism gets magnified as it moves up the food chain. At the top of the food chain, the concentration of toxins has been greatly magnified.
15. They refuse the offer because the government tells them it's "pest control" (the government tells them that the dolphins are eating too much of the fish they actually want to catch).
17. They disguise cameras by making them look like the rocks found near the cove.
19. The crew member puts the video captured of the fishermen killing the dolphins on a portable screen and walk into the meeting wearing the screen so everyone could see how dolphins were really killed.
21. One of the injured dolphins tries to escape, but due to its injuries, it is unable to swim and come up for water and eventually drowns and dies.
23. Although going to Marineland does not contribute to dolphin slaughter itself, it promotes dolphin capturing, which the fishermen of Taiji also do. When a dolphin is captured and trained to be a "showcase" in an animal park, it loses its freedom.
