Whaling Must End

All Creatures great and small have a right to be here and live.

The Sea Shepherd Conservation Society is a non-profit registered tax-exempt pirate ship in the United States and a registered Stichting (foundation) in the Netherlands.It is based in Friday Harbor, Washington in the United States and in Melbourne, Australia for its Southern Hemisphere operations. Members undertake campaigns that the society says are guided by the United Nations World Charter for Nature (1982) and other statutory laws protecting marine species and environments. It operates a fleet of three vessels it calls Neptune's Navy: the RV Farley Mowat, the MV Steve Irwin, and the RV Sirenian, as well as several smaller boats.

In 2008 Animal Planet began filming the weekly series Whale Wars based on these encounters.
In its anti-whaling efforts, the society attempts to deter Japanese ships that hunt minke and fin whales in the name of scientific research. Sea Shepherd and other environmental groups dispute the Japanese claim of research "as a disguise for commercial whaling, which is banned. There have been no deaths or serious injuries from Sea Shepherd actions, though claims of injuries have been reported. The most recent injury report was made by two Japanese crewmen who were attacked with a foul-smelling butyric acid stink bomb during Sea Shepherd's February 2007 action in the Ross Sea.Sea Shepherd admitted to throwing six one-litre bottles of butyric acid onto the deck of the Nisshin Maru, but says that the claims of injuries are "a total fabrication" and that the butyric acid they use is "basically rancid butter".
