Hi Dolphin, Whale & Ocean Lovers,
With the new administration in the US attacking our environmemtal protections on all fronts we need your help now more than ever to help us save dolphins, whales, and our oceans!!
Japan Update
Our founder, Jeff Pantukhoff, is continuing our ongoing efforts to stop the slaughter of dolphins and whales there but unfortunately, the dolphin killing by Japanese fisherman still continues in Taiji and the Japanese whaling fleet has just returned to Japan having killed 333 mike whales in the Southern Ocean Whale Sanctuary. This is outrageous and needs to stop!
We will be returning to Japan later this spring so we need your help and support now more than ever to help us stop the needless and senseless killing of dolphins and whales there!
Iceland Update
The good news! Iceland did not kill any endangered fin whales last summer and will not kill any again this summer!!
The bad news, Iceland is still killing minke whales and has set their quota to 264!!
We will continue to monitor this situation closely and we will not rest until Iceland stops killing all whales!
Norway Update
Norway continues to defy the commercial moratorium on whaling and plans to kill over 900 minke whales this summer!
Minke whales are the smallest of the great whales and are very beautiful and intelligent creatures who are also very curious and interactive with human divers. Norway, like Iceland, believes that no one cares about their illegal whaling activities but we have news for them: We do! Norway killed over 650 minke whales last summer and just started hunting minke whales again this year. Their quota is 999 minke whales. We are currently planning events to shine the spotlight on Norway as well so we need your help and support now more than ever.
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!
Sincerely,
Hayden Panettiere
International Spokesperson
