Over the hunting of humpback whales in south Pacific,Deff said it wasn’t convinced that Japanese mission was really necessary for scientific research..the whaling fleets says sale today environmental campaigners are planning to intercept this
Commercial whaling has been banned for 21 years,so the Japanese say this is a scientific expedition.but the research expedition comprised 3 whaling fleets and a vast factory ship.a research expedition which is expected to kill around a thousands of whales.it is a research expedition with a clear motive.
The scientific research we’re carrying out will pave the way to over turning *toil on commercial whaling and is expected to use as well resources. scientific research into whale is impactive for Japan
To reinforce the point, the word“research” has been painted on the side of the factory ship
“it’s very unusual to have a research being done on a endangered species involves killing them in large munbers.we will not carry out them on tigers.this isn’t scientific research this is commercial whaling by another name.this loophole in international ban on commercial whaling which allow them to kill whales and market the meat .the meat that ends up on sales in supermarkets in Japan”
What particularly annoys the activists is that this trip will target to threaten fin whales and humpback whales.it’s the largest hunt for the once almost extinct humpbacks since the 60s’.the Japanese argue that the stocks have recovered,the 4 commercial whaling began their earnest in the 20th century ,do data around 114,000.but the time of 1986 commercial ban stocks haddropped to around 1,200 but there after the population recovered,humpbacks whale take off fin as the endangerest in 1986 and reclassified as vulnerable.by 1992,the humpbacks population was believed to be around 63,000.
Waiting to intercept the Japanese whaling fleets is the Green Peace SOS
“we have called the Japanese government to cancel the hunt and to stop down hunting whales in the name of science where this is completely *you don’t need to * it well.but nevertheless they hunt at least we are here and we will be following the fleets down and protesting and do everything we can in peaceful means to stop killing whales in organizations
Automated containers will not be able entirely to prevent things like this happening with Japanese whale hunting due to continue into next year
