What’s being said, seen, read, and learned about our seas
As if Carl Safina and South Park hadn't made it abundantly clear that Japanese unilateralism and disregard for the seas are injurious to more than just conservationists, whales and bluefin tuna.
Now AP reports this:
ADELAIDE, Australia (AP) - Australian police conducted searches Saturday [March 6] on two anti-whaling vessels that recently clashed with Japanese ships in the Antarctic Ocean in an attempt to obstruct their annual catch, police and activists said.Federal police with search warrants boarded the Steve Irwin and the Bob Barker, ships belonging to the activist group Sea Shepherd Conservation Society, as the result of a "formal referral from Japanese authorities," a spokesman said on condition of anonymity in accordance with police policy. He gave no further details, including on what basis the warrant was issued.
