A pod of what appear to be pilot whale dolphins swim in a sealed off area just after the first dolphin cull of the season has taken place in Taiji, a small fishing village in Wakayama Prefecture, Japan on 10 September 2009. Floating upside-down at top right of the picture, where the rocky cliff meets the water and the yellow inflatable floats, is the discarded body of a baby bottle nose dolphin.
