Japan Update
This year Japanese whalers are planning to kill killing a total of 383 whales including 171 minke whales, 187 Bryde's whales and 25 endangered Sei whales.
Last year Japanese whalers killed 171 minke whales, 187 Bryde's whales, and 25 endangered Sei whales.
Japan is a rougue commercial whaling nation and we need your help to stop them.
Iceland Update
This year Iceland is now planning to return to commercial whaling once again killing endangered fin whales this summer after a 3 year hiatus. We still hope this whaling ban becomes permanent. We will continue to monitor this situation and will update you if there are any changes.
Norway Update
Norwegian whalers killed 575 minke whales last year and are planning to kill more than 600 minke whales this summer! Norway continues to defy the commercial moratorium on whaling even though there is no real demand for whale meat in their country.
All of us here are committed to doing everything we can to help Save the Whales Again!
We thank you all for your continuing support and ask you to please donate what you can to help us!
