Whales at Eden.

Whales at Eden.

The Japanese government whaling fleet has left its home port of Shimonoseki for its biggest hunt since the 1986 ban on commercial whaling.

The fleet plans to kill more than 1000 whales in the Southern Ocean, including 50 endangered fin whales, 50 threatened humpback whales and 935 minke whales.

Despite claims that the Japanese are conducting a "research project," the whale hunt isn't science. The International Whaling Commission has said the data the whalers gather isn't helpful, and virtually everything the Japanese will learn by harpooning the whales could be learned by non-lethal means.

Greenpeace executive director Steve Shallhorn says, “The whaling program threatens Australia's $300 million dollar a year whale-watching industry. Australian and international marine scientists have already established that we can find out everything we need to know about whales without killing them.”

The whale hunt takes money from Japanese taxpayers and robs other countries of tourism income. The threatened humpbacks targeted by the whalers are part of thriving Pacific whale watching industries

We took a game drive through the St. Lucia estuary and our guide kindly stopped the truck for us to photograph this kudu buck. Just as my husband put the camera up to take a shot, the animal turned and struck this magnificent pose. One of my favourite pics from this holiday!
