08/08/2008 None found in survey, declared "Extinct"
08/19/2008 Possible existence of Yangtze Dolphin found by a film, now planning to survey again.

* The most devoted organizations for saving Yangtze Dolphin were Japanese public organizations (aquariums). On the other hand, NGOs did not showed any interest in Yangtze Dolphin, because of not being able to raise funds with the issues of Yangtze Dolphin.

Funny how greenpeace seems to leave out killing of Bulls in Spain. At least Japan kills whales and uses all of it, yet in Spain killing is only for entertainment. Also....Greenpeace seems to like to poke fun on Japan alot more then places like Iceland and Denmark.

i don't think anyone can complain about whale hunting until they have tried this delicious animal.

Anyone who believes this bullshit propaganda video is a moron. For a culture as smart as Japan, they can be amazingly stupid.

@93brice it figures that the one of the only people on the page thats for japan is speaking japanese!!

[revron77]

ANOTHER FACT:

Only 4 papers out of the thousands Japan published on whales was accepted by scientists as creditable..... so the 4 papers out of thousands were accepted...... YOU CALL THAT RESEARCH???

ANOTHER FACT:

It is only necessary to kill a whale in the scientific sense to understand age. Apart from that all other methods can be explored without having to kill the whale.

AND DATA ON AGE ISN'T EVEN SOMETHING SCIENCE NEEDS FOR RESEARCH

THUS: Japans program is not scientific.

[revron77]

Yes boarding a ship is illegal and yes their actions were illegal.

BUT COME ON... Violent?

So let me get this, holding some paper up infront of the captain was violence? They were un-armed

I find that your trying every excuse just to slander the name of echoism by adding scary words like Violence and Terrorism. To scare people who have never studied the issue into joining your hate fuelled crusade to slander Sea Shepherd.

When they have a guns, then you can say the word terrorism

[SuperCaeley]

Go to Hell Japan. How dare you try to mislead people into believeing your doing research. I'am behind the Sea Shepherd and we will stop the slaughter of whales. Your society is sick. You slaughter these animals. You will be stopped. Mark my works. Japan is a sick society that continues to defy war. These are not terriorist. They are fighting to save the whale. Go to Hell Japan and take your lies and killing with you. Go to Hell Japan.
