Everyone knows how much i love animals, especially for marine animals!
No this is not for the Sharks (though i honestly hope this is), but this is for another even more cruel cause:
Whaling.
Please do sign the petition at Whale's Revenge, a campaign to gather 1 million signatures from all around the world to demand a stop to the killing of whales.
I know that whaling occurs in Japan (and some other parts of the world) because i *thought* there was a demand in "whale-meat", a delicacy in Japan, but apparently, every year thousands of these precious mammals are also slaughtered in the name of "so-called-scientific-research"?
What?
If you think finning was bad, i think this is as horrible!
If people don't get why i stand-up for Sharks, i'm forced to understand; i admit they are not very "pretty animals" by normal-human "appearance-matters" standards. Unless you know how to appreciate inner-majestic-beauty.
But whales?
I mean... they are not exactly "cute toy poodles", but you have to admit they are majestic grand and beautiful animals.
Its just so wrong to harm them.
Oh, and apparently, Japanese whalers have plans to kill about 900 minke whales and 50 fin whales by mid-April as part of their "so-called-scientific-research-program-my-foot".
The minke whales' conservation status is near threatened, and fin whales are considered endangered. And do you know fin whales are the second largest animal in the world?
But near threatened or endangered or not, its just WRONG to hunt them.
I hope thunder strikes where it should strike.
On another similar issue, just today i read in Section 2 of The Star newspaper about Hayden Panettiere, who stars as Claire Bennet in Heroes, and i was really touched by her efforts in trying to save and stop dolphin hunt in Japan.
I really admire her bravery and guts!
She had actually swim out into the sea with surfboards in an attempt to reach a pod of dolphins to stop them from being killed by the Japanese fisherman.
And it was sort-of a real life-threatening situation, considering that it was an open sea (there'll always be danger) with loads of Japanese fisherman in need of SERIOUS anger management... if you know what i mean...
Watch video here:
Be warned that some may find its contents disturbing.
I cried like mad watching it, its just SO SICK.
If you think whaling is "sick", this is even worst.
And also, an arrest warrant on her has been issued in Japan for her "interference" in the dolphin hunt.
OMG, its like, haven't the Japanese authorities heard of the word:
Save the cheerleader, save the world?
Apparently... no.
