It takes place every year from September to April, for human consumption or resale to dolphinariums, and most of these were caught at Taiji. The annual dolphin hunt provides income for local residents, but has received international criticism for both the alleged cruelty of the dolphin killing and the high mercury levels of the dolphin meat.
Eating dolphin meat has a lot of consequences. Scientific's have found that dolphin meat and whale meat are high in concentration of mercury.
