Alarming Numbers: Five Slaughters in Eight Weeks in the Faroe Islands

The tragic slaughter of 90 pilot whales in Hvalvik, #FaroeIslands, last week—and a staggering❗592❗in just 8 weeks—demands our immediate action.

‘There is no easy solution to ending this cruelty. The older generation of whalers are holding on to their traditional killing like their lives depend on it, and they are doing their best to inspire the younger generation to join in.’ – Valentina Crast, Shepherd’s Faroe Islands Campaign Lead

Why do we need you to follow and support❓
Because international pressure is pivotal in advocating for change. Public, policy, and corporate pressures all influence how the Faroese government and stakeholders view this issue.

👉 Your voice matters. Whether lobbying policymakers, boycotting Faroese products, or raising awareness, join our mission to #StopTheGrind.
