Thanks Brenda…

Our message is going primetime!

Animal Planet channel will be broadcasting the Oscar-winning movie, “The Cove”, this Sunday August 29th at 9 PM ET/PT. This is the US television premiere and the first chance for many to see “The Cove” and learn of its important message.

And the story doesn’t end there.  Animal Planet will also be premiering a new mini-series, “Blood Dolphin$”, that picks up where “The Cove” leaves off, following me, my son Lincoln, and the Earth Island Institute team on quests to save dolphins around the world.

The first episode, “Return to Taiji, follows our crew as we go back to Taiji, Japan for the first time since the release of “The Cove.” At first, the mission appears to work – the hunt is delayed, and a covert swim to the Cove itself shows no apparent preparations to resume the slaughter. But after we leave, we hear that dolphins have again been herded into the killing cove, and we return, this time undercover…

The next two episode find the crew in the remote and distant Solomon Islands, which much like Taiji, traffics in captivity and death of dolphins.  However, the outcome here will surprise many and demonstrate a clear path forward for others.

“Blood Dolphin$” premieres on Animal Planet on Friday, Sept 3 at 9:00 p.m.

Also, keep an eye out for our e-mail update coming soon about our trip to Japan in time for the scheduled resumption of the dolphin kill and what we are doing to stop it.

Best,
