Sea Shepherd continue ses interceptions contre la flotte « scientifique » japonaise autorisée à pécher la baleine.
Leur combat ne se limite pas à s’attaquer aux bateaux, mais surtout à récolter des preuves que la flotte scientifique n’est qu’un camouflage pour contourner les interdictions. Si la communauté internationale n’a pas le courage d’agir, qui le fera ? Simplement ceux qui en auront le courage.

Documenting the Slaughter in the Southern Ocean – YouTube
Tim Watters, a photographer aboard The Steve Irwin, gives his personal account of finding the Nisshin Maru and documenting the grisly scene aboard the decks of the factory vessel. On the 5th of January, The Steve Irwin’s helicopter found the Nisshin Maru with three protected Minke Whales on its decks, dead and awaiting butchering. The decks were smeared with the blood and remains of a fourth whose body had already been carved and processed into uniform pieces of meat, with the undesirable selections dragged across the decks and tossed overboard.
Operation Relentless is Sea Shepherd’s tenth Antarctic Whale Defence Campaign to intervene in the illegal slaughter of protected and endangered whales in the Southern Ocean Whale Sanctuary by the Japanese whaling fleet. In our previous nine campaigns, Sea Shepherd has saved the lives of over 4,500 whales.
