A Whale of a Time??
Tuesday, November 25, 2008
I came across these grotesque and disturbing pictures recently. Apparently, the massacre took place in a place called Faroe Island in Denmark. Whales are hunted for their meat and amazingly, almost every part of the whale can be used. The islanders use the blubber for processing oil, the skin for ropes and lines, stomachs for floats, and the esophagus for shoes. Undeniably, the whales do not die in vain and they truly serve their worth to the fullest, but if people do not put a stop to whale-killing, they will become extinct in no time. Mankind is definitely going down a road of self-destruction. I’m afraid one day, we will join the list of the endangered species!
