Heroes Star Hayden Panettiere breaks down over the killing of baby dolphins

Click play on the video below to see a graphic newscast of a very controversial annual dolphin killing tradition in Japan. Hayden Panettiere was one of the surfer protesters who went to try to stop this year’s slaughter. She broke down talking about the experience. Each year the tradition gains more attention.
How much longer can they keep this tradition going with the global political pressure mounting against it and the “scientific” whale slaughter?

OMG poor baby dolphins. i would break down too. oh my god. thats so sad. i understand about hayden. she just loves animals to death and i dont blame her. i do too.
how do you get to watch the video because i can’t seem to find it????????????
To view the video, just click on Hayden. It’s a flash video, so it won’t work on a device such as the iPhone (at least not at the time of this comment).
i hope the dolphins will live thour the pane and will forgive us
OMG THAT IS SO FRICKIN SAD !!!!!!!!!!!
that is so nasty killing baby dolphins and what have they eva done to us accept from if we were drowning or suttin they wud save us we wouldnt like to be just killed would we sum stupid people shud just think about that.
Jeez…why do they still do this? Traditions? oh, RIGHT. Samurai was a tradition to and they got rid of THAT. And they’re KILLING something here. This is wrong.
I love dolphins! this is sooooo sad, when i get out of college with a degree in marine biology i will sooooo help those poor dolphins out. those people are selfish beacause y do they need more food then they already have????? they got veggies, fruits, dogs, cats bugs, tec. but killing dolphins? did u know that in the next 30 to 40 years dolphins will be gone forever? u can guess why.
I am a 50 yr old man all in tears right now. I dont know if I can stand tormenting myself daily with these images because my heart sinks. Why the HELL can the unified countries not fight this?? With all the $$$ governments are wasting daily, politicians are arrogant, lazy and will not stop this cruelty. I wont buy Japanese!!!
What the heck??? A TRADITION??? What kind of tradition is killing dolphins for no reason??? Grrr… next year, I want to be there protesting. But really??? Why would killing innocent, beautiful animals ever be CONSIDERED a tradition??? Do they thinks it’s FUN to kill things??? Honestly, if they want to kill things, they should kill themselves. Atleast the dolphins would be happy.
what?………………………
how could you kill a poor little baby dolphin for no reason how would you feel if we had to kill a human baby every year you wouldent liek that so i say take a stand against thsi until it goes away
