bobbyoddjob,

This is a shameful primarily commercial exercise that must and will stop.

There's nothing wrong with sustainable whaling activities, whether they are commercial or not.

The simple fact is that the whaling company, obviously with government backing, is slaughtering whales in the Antarctic Whale Sanctuary.

IWC Sanctuaries…

sf2k,

Japan has the same right to harvest whales in the Antarctic as every other nation. And Japan has been doing so since the 1930's (other nations likewise exercised their rights from the early 1900's). With it being 2009 already it seems odd that you'd want to complain about it…

Antarctic whale is the best, very good meat, without mercury. And very full of nutrition. Please check it.

There are many many whales in Antarctic ocean. Japan's research has helped prove it.

MeanRingo, we can not catch whales without science. Whales are not the farmed animals.

It is said the crazy Hannah will be on the ship for just one week. Because she must go back to hollywood to continue her acting works.

Not enough time to "save the whales"?

She makes a fool of the Sea Shepherds. It is good.

This is no plunder. The Japanese government's ardent wish is only for the sustainable use of whales. Japan can share the sustainable quota with South Korea, Russia, whoever else likes to join.

The dolphin and porpoise are the different species. I suppose few persons eat dolphin so much that it becomes the big problem. The government report shows it is changing, fishermen are also adjusting their catch down as demand shifts from dolphin and porpoises to baleen whales.
