The Makah plan to start killing Gray whales in October. Sea Shepherd's Gray Whale Protecion Campaign is going on now. Our long-range ship Sea Shepherd III and coastal patrol vessel EdwardAbbey are now on site, in opposition the planned whale hunt. Sea Shepherd has organized the local Whale Guardians Network to coordinate the actions necessary to head off the hunt. We need your financial support, your physical presence, or your efforts to spread the word on what is about to happen off the coast ofWashington! The "ceremonial" element of this hunt is being promoted to make the killing more palatable to the public. The real goal of the hunt is to use the "aboriginal" loopholes in the international whaling moratorium togain a foothold for a new era of commercial whale meat trade. Through the recent formation of the World Whaling Council in Port Alberni, British Columbia, Japan is using native groups who feel they have the right to kill whales as front groups in a long-range plan to re-start commercial whaling. At the International Whaling Commission meeting in Dublin in May 1995, Dan Greene, the delegate from the Makah nation, met with representatives of the Norwegian, Icelandic, and Japanese whaling associations, who are whaling over the objections of the IWC and in violation of IWC regulations. The three whaling nations have pledged to support the Makah.

U.S. Department of Commerce NOAA NMFS AFSC /NMML Baleen Whales What should I know about baleen whales? Baleen whales are the largest animals on earth, yet they feed on some of the smallest animals in the ocean. There are 12 baleen whale species divided into 4 families: right pygmy right gray and rorqual whales. What are right whales and pygmy right whales like? Right whales were called the "right" whales to catch by early hunters because they are large, swim slowly, have long baleen plates, contain lots of oil, and float when killed. Right whales do not have dorsal fins or throat grooves. The taxonomy of this family is rather confusing, but currently there are three species of right whales: the Northern right whale Southern right whale , and bowhead whale . The pygmy right is in a separate family although it shares similar characteristics to right whales. What are gray whales like? Gray whales have their own taxonomic family, genus, and species.

A Whale of A Film A Look at Whales The IMAX Experience The Whale General Characteristics Whale Species Of all the earth's animals, none is more fascinating than the whales, members of the order Cetacea. Although whales spend their lives in the sea, they are warm-blooded mammals. And just like land mammals, whale calves nurse on their mothers' milk. One species of whale, the great Blue whale , is the largest creature that has ever lived. Larger than the largest of ancient dinosaurs, blue whales can grow to be more than 100 feet long and weigh more than 150 tons. Of course, not all whales are as large as the great blue. The Pilot whale, for example, grows to about 28 feet. And those popular members of the whale family, porpoises, range from 3 to 13 feet in length.

This may be the last chance before they say goodbye for this Planet 1. Whale watching world-wide Whale watching as a commercial activity began in 1955 in North America along the southern California coast. Today, whale watching is carried on in the waters of some 40 countries, plus Antarctica. All the large whale species and many dolphins and porpoises canbe seen regularly on a wide range of tours, lasting from an hour to two weeks. Whale watching is a non-consumptive use of whales with economic, recreational, educational and scientific dimensions. The economic benefits occur in areas where whale watching has quickly become a significant aspect of a local tourism economy. If prospective tour operators examine areas where whale-watching industries have matured and learn from their experiences, whalewatching world-wide can continue to grow with maximum benefits accruing to local communities, companies, scientists, conservation societies, whale watchers and, ultimately, the whales themselves.(Cit:Hoyt E.1992.
