Locals wade out in wetsuits and use ropes to catch the whales before stabbing them with lances near the shores of Faroe Islands, an island group and archipelago under the sovereignty of the Kingdom of Denmark, on June 16, 2017. Every year, herds of pilot whales will pass by the shores of Faroe Islands during their migrations. When a herd of pilot whales has been spotted close to the shore, fishermen are alarming other inhabitants of islands, and very soon a massive ship convoy will surrounding the whale herd. Locals then will try to push the whales into the closest and authorized bay for slaughtering. (Photo/Sipachina)
