Why have some communities in Ghana turned to eating dolphin meat? | DW Documentary

An estimated 10,000 dolphins are killed each year in Ghana even though the creatures have been legally protected there since 1971. In the western part of the country, dolphin meat is an important source of food and income. Many fish stocks that local fishers used to rely on have been depleted by large industrial trawlers from Europe and China, forcing coastal communities to look for alternatives.
