Footage of Japanese whalers hunting down a mink whale in the Southern Ocean Sanctuary off of Antarctica. Whalers using a high-powered harpoon. The whale was not hit in a vital organ, therefore the whale suffers and does not die for approximately 10 minutes.

  • A coastal whaling base in Miyagi Prefecture of Japan has been destroyed by the powerful tsunami triggered by 3/11/11's massive earthquake, which washed away their whale-processing facility. In Ishinomaki of Ayukawa on southern Oshika, the tsunami of 10 meters high traveled 600 meters inland. They prospered as a whaling base since opening there in 1906. Two of their vessels were scheduled to participate in Japan's research whaling in April. search.japantimes.co.jp/cgi-bi­n/nn20110318a7.html

  • 12/26/2011: "SSCS, the organization defending whales against asshole Japanese whalers on "researcher" cosplay, have a powerful new weapon: unmanned aerial vehicles. They have located a Japanese whaling fleet 1,000 miles north of the Southern Ocean whale sanctuary using a drone. Last year SSCS ships blocked the Japanese whalers saving 858 whales out of 1,035 - the number of whales the Japanese had planned to hunt down." gizmodo. com/5871086/sea-shepherd-now-u­sing-drones-to-hunt-japanese-w­halers

  • and thankfully due to african and arabic sea pirates, and 9-11 the piracy and terrorism laws soon will be the end of peta which is also greenpeace and sea shepard etc etc everyone needs watch penn n tellers bullshit episodes "peta" and "environmental histeria" for crash course in truth reality. everything you think you know is propaganda and lies from decades of campaigning lobbyuing lying cheating etc etc by these groups even doc's on discovery pbs etc are peta propaganda wake up

  • #2 the only way insane dishinest psychotic terrorist groups like peta greenpeace ( same thing same people same administration same goals- to end ALL FISHING of any kind) can achieve insane anti fishing hunting goals is to list specie as endangered, however FACT whales are not only not in any danger of extinction but are healthiest ever been since we began keepnig track! whales are gorgeous yes, but not reason to allow them destroy all sea life and then them selves! some MUST be killed off

  • kudos to japs finnish norwegian asian etc who have been one with the sea for milenia lol and the only ones smart enough to know whales eat acres and acres tons and tons ( 1/2 their body weight so roughly 5-15 tons or more depending on species of the whale) and 1 whale descimates more biomass of marine life 1 month then an entire asian fishing fleet takes in a full year! we MUST kill % of all whales to maintain balance health of all marine life cant kill lots somethings but none of the worst ones

  • I would had threw a bomb on that ship. then speed off. that would fking stop them.
