Still nothing WHAT they allegedly lied about, only what the effects of said pictures were.

  • been going on since the 9th century
  • Faroese cuisine is generally dominated by the use of animal products, as only about 2% of the 1,393 km2 of land on the islands is at all suitable for arable crops
  • a 2008 paper in Australian Archaeology said conservationists find Faroese whaling particularly offensive because it does not conform to traditional Western perspectives on "primitive" tribes

But, you see, I think my culture is superior so they should stop.

Anyway, who's up for an ethically* slaughtered cow that I've raised in a box?

Wow I didn’t realize that cows were endangered. I also didn’t realize that we slaughtered cows by drowning them.

Both long-finned pilot whales and Atlantic white-sided dolphins aren't endangered, they're least concern. They've always been hunting sustainably.
