@lianap11 Oh, what a crap. Australia cannot have a territory in Antarctica because the country signed Antarctic Treaty System in 1961, and Japan whales in the Antarctic ocean. If AUS gov't does something to a Japanese vessel on a high sea engaged in legal activities, that is practically a declaration of a war.
@drkuroneko Clearly you haven't read the treaty or you'd know that signing the Antarctic Treaty does NOT renounce Australia's Territorial Sovereignty. The Federal Court of Australia has declared Japanese whaling in Australia’s Antarctic waters unlawful under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999. Therefore Australia has the right to enforce the law within it's sovereign territory and surrounding EEZ. Japan can legally hunt there for scientific purposes as it claims...
@drkuroneko ... but the Japs must think we're pretty fuckin stupid to buy that. Firstly why wont they publish their research? Secondly if you're researching any creature of any kind for any purpose you don't need to kill in the thousands. Ask any research scientist. And obviously, the AUS gov't is not going to do deal with the issue on the high seas because it's a political matter.
@lianap11 ATS Article 4 – "The treaty does not recognize, dispute, nor establish territorial sovereignty claims; no new claims shall be asserted while the treaty is in force"
Australian claim is not consistent with this, and hence, is not valid. They kill thousands of animals for research in medical science every day.
"the high seas"
So, it is on the high seas, not AUS territorial waters.
@drkuroneko AUS Antarctic territory was disovered by an Australian Sir Douglas Mawson in 1911, and was claimed on behalf of the British. Further claims were staked by a Mawson led expedetion by the British Australia and New Zealand between 1929 and 1931. The british handed their slice over to AUS in 1931. PRE treaty and so valid.
@lianap11 which was effectively put in abeyance when the country signed the ATS in 1961. Argentina, AUS, Chile, NZ, France, Norway, and UK still claim parts of the Antarctica as their territory, and recognise one another claims, which is not consistent with the ATS, or what the rest of of the world think of the Antarctica.
australians. There is no comparison between industrial hunting and traditional hunting by Indigenous Australians. They're endangered because fundamentalist christians thought they were mermaids and an affront to god. The Aboriginals have not hunted them into endagerment. They have also been asked to stop until the numbers recover.
@drkuroneko Look dude you digress too much. You asked what law Japan violates and I told you. If you don't like it, not my problem, I got better things to do.
@lianap11 Who is dude? It is actually impossible to violate Aussie laws on international waters, unless the vessel is registered in Australia. You don't understand this simple thing, and is trying to run away.
@drkuroneko Not running away, I just can't be fucked giving history lessons to some dipshit who cherry picks facts to suit himeslf. Excuse me if I'd like to see some whales lefover for future generations. And I'M an asshole? And for your information, Australia has not whaled for nearly 45 years. Last history lesson for you.
@lianap11 Wow, what an intelligent sounding asshole. ATS makes it crystal clear that AUS does not own Antarctica, and Japan hunts well within the reproduction rate, so the future generation will see some whales, i.e., they are not like Tasmanian tigers. 45 years has passed since you try to exterminate whales? And you want to blame it on Japan? What an idiot.
Minke whales are the most abundant rorqual in the world, and their population status is considered stable throughout almost all of its range (especially when compared to other species of large whales). There are an estimated 185,000 minke whales in the Atlantic, and 510,000-1,400,000 in the Southern Hemisphere
Japan's pelagic whaling fleet, which annually hunts large whales in the Southern Ocean, consists of a number of ships for hunting and processing whale catch as well as securing the hunt against protests. During the 2009–10 season, the Japanese fleet included a factory ship, four harpoon ships and two security patrol vessels. The Japanese quota includes 935 minke, 50 fin and 50 humpback whales per season.
"the Shepherds use the legally harmless "stink bombs" to taint the meat so the whalers can't profit from it. "? Cost of research whaling is mostly paid by whale meat. It seems that stink bombs does not work at all.
The Sea Shepherds hit where it hurts. As we all know by now, Whales are very susceptible to toxins (just like mercury). Well, when the japanese kill a whale, the Shepherds use the legally harmless "stink bombs" to taint the meat so the whalers can't profit from it. So now they've spent the costs of fuel, salaries for their men, food & supplies, whatever licenses, and bribes... and have nothing to show for it but bankruptcy.
This, plus the court battles, will bring it all to an end eventually
It is not illegal whaling. Japanese are whaling according to the IWC rules. I wonder if Sea Shepherd or Australia Government thinks themselves the law.
Whale research is important. Recent abnormal weather and diastrophism may cause food shortage in the future. It is not wise to depend only on livestock industry or farming for meat or fish. Whale meat may be important food. Further, if there is no whaling, whales may grow too large and they may eat too much fish which is also important food.
This is absolutely the most cruelest thing I have ever seen in my life! How could people actually LIKE this video?! Whales are living things too you know! They are just like aquatic humans taking a different form to adapt to their surroundings!
@ExocetAM38 cows pigs and chicken are easily farmed. tons of stok. what about whales? can you reproduces them? we must keep their presence. it's not funny if there's no more whales for our grandson to see next few decade...
@Willynez Don't worry, a number of some whales like Mink is rapidly growing until it is concerned that they will damage fishery resources. Research whaling is necessary to controlle whales as one of the resources in the sea. Most of meat has been supplied by the livestock industry, but there is no reason to restrict a supply of meat to this industry only.
@ExocetAM38 The issue isn't the fact that they are alive. The issue is that whales reproduce far slower than they are killed and therefore are becoming extinct. Its not simply a soppy, unnatural desire to not kill the poor wittle animals; its a desire to prevent entire species from vanishing from the face of the earth forever because of our influence as a species.
@dan240393 Yes, we have to be very careful about whale even as one of the resources in the sea. Research whaling is necessary to control this resource. You can read the report of the ICR in English ".icrwhale.org/pdf/SC59Rep1.pdf". The data are useful for the controlled whaling.
god, the people who kill animals in such ways are SICK SICK SOULS. they have no idea what they're in for when the planet is rid of them once and for all!
@mattymoo1998 well, unfortunately, we can't control them. it's their choice, who cares. it may be illegal in all the world, but it's not illegal in japan, which means that unless japan outlaws it, then those 200,000 whales that everyone is freaking out about can multiply faster, and as if pulling out said many are gonna harm the species. if it gets serious enough, japan will impair hunting them. i kid you not.
All this shit over a group of people eating an animal which is viewed as cute. Fuck I think cows and chickens are cute but I fucking eat it every day. Unless you are 100% veggi eater you fucking morons have nothing to say over who eats what and where. BTW The fucking Japs are eating whales and dolphins who have the highest levels of mercury in them. If they find it reasonable to consume meats with deadly levels of heavy metal okay with them, let them.

@themarlindude There is nothing wrong with the fact that they are trying to help whales. The problem is that they say something is illegal when no law is named. And they are asshole hypocrites. Attack the Japanese but when they retaliate, "Oh no I think I got shot." Boo FUCKING HOO!

@lianap11 Oh, what a crap. Australia cannot have a territory in Antarctica because the country signed Antarctic Treaty System in 1961, and Japan whales in the Antarctic ocean. If AUS gov't does something to a Japanese vessel on a high sea engaged in legal activities, that is practically a declaration of a war.

@ModellMeister your a fucking dipshit. These guys are trying to help whales, and your fat ass is saying that they shouldnt? Dipshit!!

@themarlindude There is nothing wrong with the fact that they are trying to help whales. The problem is that they say something is illegal when no law is named. And they are asshole hypocrites. Attack the Japanese but when they retaliate, "Oh no I think I got shot." Boo FUCKING HOO!
