Update: The original video was taken down by the BBC for some reason, but here’s one with even more footage of the incident
The Australian government has captured footage of a Japanese whaling fleet killing a mother minke whale and her calf. Hopefully these images can pressure the Japanese government into following international law.
Sign this Greenpeace petition for whales to be shot with Canons, not harpoons.
On a completely unrelated note: Romney dropped out of the race today, but let’s not pretend like that makes any difference by wasting an entire post on it.

The miserable ‘net cops’ have cut the video. Not sure what is more sickening, the harpooning of whales or ‘freedom of hypocrisy.’

Thanks for the heads up camelien. I’ve replaced the video with another of the incident.
