Dtiys challenge ✍🏻Did you know that the Icela Dtiys challenge ✍🏻Did you know that the Icelandic and Japanese whale industry is planning to sell whale meat in vending machines? 😧 @styngvi made a dtiys challenge to make aware of this cruel project. I made a little research myself: Apparently staff and customers had been harassed by animal-rights activists in the past. Anyway, eating whale meat is described as a tradition that has to be carried on, so the industry created these vending machines. But the tradition is questionable. Many Japanese have probably never eaten whale meat at all …
