Sami in Norway want hunt Dolphins

"Indigenous community in Norway seek permission to hunt dolphins

27 November 2018 - 1:58pm

A new proposal to hunt dolphins and harbour porpoise put forward by the indigenous Sami people of northern Norway, has been endorsed by the representative Sami parliament.

The Sami parliament, which oversees the Sami populations in Norway, northern Finland, parts of Russia and Sweden, unanimously endorsed the proposal and will now take their request to the national government of Norway for approval. Those behind the proposal believe that dolphin population numbers around Norway are at a level where some can be slaughtered but importantly, they need to provide robust scientific proof that this is the case before any approval or quota is agreed.

It is uncertain if data on whale and dolphin population numbers in the region is complete and any decision on numbers allowed for slaughter would be based on estimates only.

The indigenous people of Greenland, Canada and Alaska already have self-allocated quotas for slaughter of several species of small whale, dolphin and porpoise and the Sami people are hoping that similar hunting rights will be granted in the fjords of northern Norway.

The international community recognises the rights of certain indigenous aboriginal peoples to hunt a limited number of whales to meet nutritional and cultural needs. But, over the last few years certain aboriginal subsistence whaling communities have abused the definition by allowing whale meat to enter the commercial marketplace where it is sold in supermarkets and to tourists for profit. The hunting of small whales, dolphins and porpoises however remains even more controversial as it is not overseen by an international body like the International Whaling Commission (IWC - the body that regulates whale hunts) as the killing of large whales is, but it instead controlled by individual governments and indigenous councils.
