Whale hunting in Denmark
A Faroese man shows his son how to take out teeth from a whale's jaw in the harbour of Torshavn, July 23, 2010. Every year, herds of pilot whales are passing by shores of Faroe Islands, an autonomous province of Denmark. In the past fishermen used spears and harpoons, but today the whale hunting equipment is legally restricted to special knives, ropes, and assessing-poles for measurement. [Agencies]
