The people in those countries are not starving, they can get their food from the supermarket, which comes from DOMESTICATED farm animals that are bred in large numbers. Using tradition is not an excuse. Especially in these scandanavian countries where the traditions of other peoples (e.g. muslims) are the subject of ridicule.
If they want to eat dolphin because of some antiquated tradition then they should do it the traditional way, on rafts instead of power boats.

I think they want to eat it because its tasty and healthy, thats why I eat whales anyway.
But you're saying, industrial farming = ok hunting = bad?
You're an idiot.
Industrial farming feeds the world, hunting feeds the bloodlust of the savage few. As for health and tastiness, I am sure there are plenty of substitutes. If they are worried about vitamin deficiency there are pills for that.

Seeing there much talk about nothing in this thread i will say that Faroe island have been doing this type of culling for ages and will continue to do so as there culture feels so.
So now for wiki links.
Just read the articles and numbers. And for christs sake they are not killing Flipper.
The islands : Faroe Islands
The Flipper they eat : Flipper
And also lets not forget that the US is the bigger killer of whales in the world. Yes your goverment gives out whaling quotas to your native tribes. And they whale becouse it's there culture.
See : Same Same but diffrent.
If this is an issue of 'tradition' why don't they use rafts like their forefathers did and keep everything traditional? If they embrace modern technology then they must embrace modern sensibilities.
