A very good image showing that life underwater also needs protection and conservation. Lovely picture.

Terrible picture of a japanese fishing boat and a whale.

After searching for 10 days, Greenpeace ship tracked down the Japanese whaling fleet off Antarctica. They would take non-violent action to try to stop them.

Whales have been safe from harpoons for 7 days as the Esperanza, continues to keep the whaling fleet from killing whales. Go greenpeace!

Both sides have said that no one was hurt in the collision, although some damage was sustained above deck and to a mast on the Arctic Sunrise. According to an ABC report, Shane Rattenbury from Greenpeace said that the Arctic Sunrise had been observing their activists onboard inflatable zodiacs as they painted the words "whale meat from sanctuary" on the side of the Japanese supply vessel, Oriental Bluebird, shortly before the collission occurred. According to Mr Rattenbury, it appeared to be a deliberate move by the Japanese Factory ship.
