They take risks and put themselves into positions that most sailors try to avoid at all costs. That said, I am reasonably certain that under normal sailing conditions, the bridge and boat crews of the Sea Shepherd ships would never maneuver the way they do. It is lamentable that governments with properly trained and equipped fleets are unwilling to stop the "research" whale hunting charade. If the US, Australia, New Zealand (el al.) would live up to their past rhetoric regarding the conservation of whales, whaling (and Whale Wars) would be over in very short order.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
