Whale Massacre
Nov. 28, 2006 - Australian Antarctic, South Seas - A dead whale is hoisted from the ocean onto a Japanese whaling ship off Tasmania, in the globally recognized Southern Ocean Whale Sanctuary. The Japanese whaling fleet expected a catch of 900 minke whales, more than double its previous catch. Though the Japanese say the whaling is for scientific research, Australia and the U.S. say itŐs a way of carrying out subsidized commercial whaling.
