About 2300 dolphins are slaughtered for food every year in this secret cove near Taiji, Japan filmed with covert cameras by the Oceanic Preservation Society. Even though the meat is toxic the Japanese government sanctions the use of the mercury laced meat for school lunch programs.

Ahh, I think it was 23,000 dolphins every year. Your number severely understates the issue. Check the movie again at about 19.5 minutes into it where this number appears right on the screen.
