  • Whaling isn't cool. but I'm fairly certain that the whole Sea Shepard crew, especially the captain, are all completely full of shit.

  • Whale meat is a delicacy. The japanese are NOT doing this for survival.

    Whale meat sells for $64. per pound. So one Minke of 6 tons would make the whalers $768,000...

    unless the meat is discovered to have high levels of mercury in it, then the heroes of Japan generously donate those batches to schools, to serve as lunches because they can't sell it.

    The batches they do keep (and don't get SOLD) go bad in a warehouse and get dumped. Then they go out hunting for re-stock

  • TV stations have sent cameramen to the japanese ships to film their side of this whole war and get their insight, and the whalers repeatedly decline to have witnesses onboard their "friendly science vessel".

    But there's an old saying: "It's better to be silent and thought a fool, than to speak up and remove all doubt."

    Now I get why people don't answer my questions, because all they have as a source is a biased one and they never try finding the truth by them selves. They can't prove its a reliable source, how can someone trust an organization that throws bins toward the Japanese boat.

    I'd at least believe it if it was the IWC website.

    Can you give me some useful and reliable websites to research about Japanese whaling ?

    Nobody ever answers this question when I ask this.

  • @lolokooza

    Wouldn't you be surprised!

  • @info145

    I see you on every whaling video, are you just a nerd without occuputaion, or are you researching this as a profession.

  • lol HOnk Honk HOnk

  • I would pay a shitload of money to shoot that big harpoon and hunt for whales once.

    To get it right the Japs did not rm the Sea Sheperd, they simply provoked it by cuting them off.

    By the way I agree on the crew and the Sea Sheperd captain being full of shit !
