"No matter how many times Richard O'Barry or any of the participants in The Cove talk about mass dolphin slaughter, watching the sea turn red from above and below the surface is a gut-wrenching experience. On the southern coast of Japan, a town has a well-guarded secret: they trap dolphins and quite simply kill them. Why?
