United Nations Court Orders the End of Whaling!
UN has put an end to commercial whaling in the southern ocean whale sanctuary. Only the Nisshinmaru (a Whaling vessel). departed to the southern ocean to count whales and take skin samples. Of cause not long ago commercial whaling was banned by Australia. But Japan claimed to meet the scientific standards and started whaling any way. But a huge thanks to the Sea Shepherd conservation society, for bringing awareness to this cause and saving thousands of whales before this ban.
