Today, the Prime Minister of Australia, Kevin Rudd, asked the Japanese whalers to stop whaling in it’s Antartica territorial waters. He threatened legal action if they persist. This is good news because, in the past, the Australian government has allowed the Japanese to kill whales in their territorial waters. The Japanese whaling fleet is on it’s way there with Sea Shepherd close behind.
