谷歌一下,丹麦还有观鲸旅游这样的项目,与这种屠杀真是对比鲜明。
以屠杀证明成年和能力,这样的传统只能说是人类社会发展与科技发展的断层,我可以理解在远古时期人们用杀戮来证明自己的能力,但是这个时代显然已经过去了。
想不通的是,斯堪的纳维亚那边的其他国家对这种杀戮会没有交涉,丹麦本国为什么不采取措施制止这样的行为。 http://www.magic-city-news.com/R_P_BenDedek_33/Faroe_Island_Denmark_Whale_Slaughter_Culture12622.shtml
这边有一些评论。These whale kills have occurred in the Faroe Islands for hundreds of years and are considered by Islanders to be an important part of their social culture. It is generally only Faroese men who take part in the killings while female islanders look on. The whale hunts have caused international outrage and have been roundly condemned as unnecessary and barbaric by conservation and animal rights groups around the world. However, Faroe Islanders vigorously defend their right to engage in the hunts.
