Sea Shepherd Update February 10, 2010
Direct from the Captain’s seat as Captain Paul Watson and his fleet defend our whales from senseless slaughter
YEAH !! GO SEA SHEPHERD !!!!
Captain Paul Watson reports:-
I have good news to report. Tomorrow marks a full week that not a single whale has been killed in the Southern Ocean Whale Sanctuary. Our goal now is to make it two weeks and then three weeks.
We escorted the majority of the whaling fleet out of the sanctuary on Tuesday (more on that in the first news story below), but just today they tried to come back into these internationally protected waters with the intent to kill more whales. Both of our ships were on scene trying to stop the four whaling ships from returning to the sanctuary. A heated 5-hour battle ensued. There were many near misses but no collisions and no injuries.
We are steadily impacting their quota and intend to continue to hit them where it hurts – their wallets. We will not tolerate the death of a single whale. If they attempt to kill and transfer a whale to the Nisshin Maru, we will stand our ground.
