I do think the Sea Shepard does great work. They patrol waters that are protected from whaling. They also spread the word that this indeed does happen. I know it is culture for the Japanese, but what do they need whales for now? These animals are almost extinct... if they are all gone, what happens to Japanese culture then? Either way it will be stopped sooner or later...

Sorry my2rotties I am not saying that I agree with the whaling, i am only stating that some of these organisations are a little suspecious with their info and sometimes their main purpose is financial instead of geniune. As an example, it was reported this week that the US HUmane Society raised $124 million dollars last year of which a grand total of $6 million was passed over to actual animal shelters.
