How do people hunt dolphins?
Dolphin hunting usually involves a technique called “drive fishing” or “drive hunting,” where fishermen in boats bang metal poles with hammers to create a sound beneath the water that confuses the dolphins. Hunters then chase the disoriented dolphins toward shore, eventually driving them into shallow coves or inlets. Sometimes, however, dolphins are captured in the same fashion as whales, with the use of harpoons or crossbows shot from large ships.
