'{{Short description|Method of hunting dolphins}} {{Use dmy dates|date=April 2021}} '''Dolphin drive hunting''', also called '''dolphin drive fishing''', is a method of [[hunting]] [[dolphin]]s and occasionally other small [[cetacean]]s by driving them together with boats and then usually into a bay or onto a beach. Their escape is prevented by closing off the route to the open sea or ocean with boats and nets. Dolphins are hunted this way in several places around the world, including the [[Solomon Islands]], the [[Faroe Islands]], [[Peru]], and [[Japan]], the most well-known practitioner of this method. By numbers, dolphins are mostly hunted for their [[whale meat|meat]]; some end up in [[dolphinarium]]s. Despite the controversial nature of the hunt resulting in international criticism, and the possible health risk that the often polluted meat causes, tens of thousands of dolphins are caught in drive hunts each year. <ref>{{Cite web|url=https://awionline.org/press-releases/report-100000-dolphins-small-whales-and-porpoises-slaughtered-globally-each-year|title=Report: 100,000+ Dolphins, Small Whales and Porpoises Slaughtered Globally Each Year}}</ref> [[File:Hvalba 26-08-06 (3).jpg|thumb|300px|[[Atlantic white-sided dolphin]] caught in a drive hunt in [[Hvalba]] on the [[Faroe Islands]] being taken away with a forklift]] ==By country== === Faroe Islands === {{Main|Whaling in the Faroe Islands}} [[File:Killed pilot wales in hvalba, faroe islands.JPG|thumb|right|300px|Killed [[pilot whale]]s on the beach in the village [[Hvalba]] on the southernmost Faroese island [[Suðuroy]], August 2002]] Whaling in the [[Faroe Islands]] takes the form of beaching and slaughtering [[long-finned pilot whale]]s.

With fisheries accounting for 20% of Iceland's employment at the time, the perceived economic impact was significant. The Icelandic government asked the United States for assistance. As a [[NATO]] ally with an air base in Iceland, the [[United States Navy|US Navy]] deployed Patrol Squadrons VP-18 and VP-7 to achieve this task. According to the US Navy, hundreds of animals were killed with [[machinegun]]s, [[rocket]]s and [[depth charge]]s.<ref>United States Navy Archive / Naval Aviation News (1956) [http://www.history.navy.mil/nan/backissues/1950s/1956/dec56.pdf Killer Whales Destroyed - VP-7 accomplishes special task] {{webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140309231158/http://www.history.navy.mil/nan/backissues/1950s/1956/dec56.pdf |date=9 March 2014 }}</ref> In the late 1970s, after the [[Marine Mammal Protection Act of 1972]] and the ban on hunting killer whales in [[Washington (state)|Washington]] in 1976 as discussed later in this article, the hunting of killer whales in Iceland resumed, this time aiming to capture live animals for the entertainment industry. The first two killer whales captured went to [[Dolfinarium Harderwijk]] in the [[Netherlands]]. One of these animals was soon after transferred to [[SeaWorld]]. These captures continued until 1989, with the additional animals going to SeaWorld, [[Marineland (Antibes)|Marineland Antibes]], [[Marineland of Canada]], [[Kamogawa Sea World]], [[Ocean Park, Hong Kong|Ocean Park Hong Kong]], and [[Conny-Land]].<ref>PBS - Frontline - [https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/shows/whales/etc/cron.html A whale of a business - historical chronology], article retrieved 9 March 2014.</ref> Although commercial whaling does still take place in Icelandic waters today, dolphins are no longer hunted and [[whale watching]] is popular amongst tourists. === Japan === {{Main|Taiji dolphin drive hunt}} {{See also|Fishing industry in Japan|Whaling in Japan}} [[File:Taiji.JPG|thumb|The fishing village of [[Taiji, Wakayama|Taiji]]]] The Taiji dolphin drive hunt captures small cetaceans for [[whale meat|their meat]] and for sale to [[dolphinarium]]s.

Taiji is the only town in Japan where drive hunting still takes place on a large scale. Concern is majority through the methodology of the hunt, as actions are viewed as inhumane. An article by ''[[National Geographic]]'' refers to The [[Japanese Association of Zoos and Aquariums]]' decision to no longer support the Taiji hunt. In 2015, it was announced that there would be a ban in the buying and selling of dolphins through the means of this hunt.{{Citation needed|date=March 2021}} === Kiribati === Similar drive hunting existed in [[Kiribati]] at least until the mid-20th century.<ref>British diplomat Arthur Grimble's memoir, ''A Pattern of Islands'' (1952)</ref> === Peru === [[File:Dusky Dolphin being skinned.jpg|thumb|300px|[[Dusky dolphin]] being skinned on a boat in Peru.]] Though it is forbidden under Peruvian law to hunt dolphins or eat their meat (sold as ''chancho marino'', or ''sea pork'' in English), a large number of dolphins are still killed illegally by fishermen each year.<ref>{{Cite news|last=Hall |first=Kevin G. |title=Dolphin meat widely available in Peruvian stores: Despite protected status, 'sea pork' is popular fare |newspaper=The Seattle Times |year=2003 |url=http://www.thefreelibrary.com/Dolphin+meat+widely+available+in+Peruvian+stores+Despite+protected...-a0102897976 |access-date=7 December 2010 }}{{dead link|date=June 2016|bot=medic}}{{cbignore|bot=medic}}</ref> To catch the dolphins, they are driven together with boats and encircled with nets, then [[harpoon]]ed, dragged on to the boat, and clubbed to death if still alive.
