Protect Humpbacks from Whaling
Target: Ryozo Kato, Ambassador of JapanSponsored by: International Fund for Animal Welfare
The Japanese Government is sending its whaling fleet into the protected waters of the Southern Ocean Sanctuary around Antarctica. And this year, Japan is threatening to add endangered humpback and fin whales to its target list!
The Japanese government attempts to defend its whaling program by calling it "scientific" whaling. In reality, this deadly program is nothing more than unlawful commercial whaling in disguise. We don't need to kill whales to study them in the 21st century.
More than 30,000 whales have been killed since a global ban on commercial whaling came into effect in 1986. Japan must not expand its whaling program!
Tell Japanese Ambassador Ryozo Kato to immediately stop the senseless annual killing of whales, including the endangered Humpback.

PLEASE, no hypocrisy : your country kills whales for money, not for science !
# 57,168:
It's blatantly obvious that the killing of these whales is for the sole purpose of selling the flesh on the market and lining your pockets. All at the expense of the lives of animals that are already in turmoil.
