Help end the Faroe Islands whale slaughter!

Help end the Faroe Islands whale slaughter!

More than a hundred pilot whales and dolphins have been brutally slaughtered during the annual grindadráp hunt in the Faroe Islands already - and hundreds more face the same violent fate.

But we can stop this needless killing spree.

There’s loads of international pressure already on the Faroese government to end this brutal practice – and now residents are saying they have had enough.

Here’s the thing. The last public poll was back in 2021. A lot has changed. Still, the government claims that the people want to keep the hunts going. With your help, we can commission a new independent poll, then campaign to ramp up local pressure on key decision-makers until we stop the hunt forever.

We’ve come out in droves to protect whales before, successfully getting SeaWorld to drop its orca captivity program. Together, we can keep these beautiful creatures in the sea where they belong.
