Jack does not approve of whaling, unless whales are full of rum!
BUT! I am incredibly excited about eco-pirates, or "pirates of compassion" as they style themselves.
Green Pirates Claim Victory
It's really sad that countries I otherwise have no real problems with (Canada, Japan) insist on maintaining these out-of-date marine mammal hunts. Whaling is so nineteenth century! But it seems like the pirates did a fantastic job; the Japanese whaling ships were only able to take about half the number of whales they had set out to brutally slaughter, and none of those were fin or humpback whales. It's still a few hundred whales too many for my tastes, but still -- a good thing for cetacean-kind!
Jumping for joy!
