In that case, it does seem a bit hypocritical to point fingers abroad when we have problems at home. For example:

The Japanese are killing an endangered species and claiming they are doing so for research purposes.The animals you have referred to in that link are not being killed by the scientists trying to protect them under the guise of research purposes.They are being killed by the the way we live our lives and not for food usage.I'm just pointing out that it flies in the face of what is accepted conservation policy to 'deliberately' kill that which you are protecting from endangerment.
