 I am here to support the anti-whaling side, as in the sea shepherds. The sea shepherds are a group of environmentalists and volunteers led by Paul Watson. Every year they go to the southern ocean chasing and trying to sink the Japanese whaling fleet, in their ship, the Steve Irwin, while saving hundreds of whales each year. If they're able to sink the whaling fleet, we can save the whales. Nobody in the USA would eat whale meat, unless they're from Japan. These whales don't deserve to die.   Whaling has been banned for years, but the whalers found a loophole so that once a whale is killed, scientists can collect data from the animal's remains on its age, birthing rate and diet. Then the meat is packaged and sold. It's still a bad excuse, because they're still being killed. They probably aren't even collecting data any more!   Migaloo is the only albino whale known, and he is one of the most popular tourist attractions in Australia. Even in a star trek movie, there were whales. Did you also know that whales are actually in the dolphin family? Did you hear that dolphin lovers, whales are dolphins too!  There are about 100,000 whales in the world left, and in a couple years there will probably be 100 left. Would you want to actually have your own whale aquarium as walls when you’re older, I would. I will admit that’s not going to happen, but if they’re millions of whales in the world by that time, we might get those. Maybe we could have a basement of reinforced glass underwater to see whales and other marine life when whales aren’t endangered. Would you like a basement underwater to see marine life, I definitely would.  A lot of you think that dead whales aren’t a big deal. It actually is to lots of people including me and environmentalists. Would you like to kill harmless whales? Would you want to eat their insides after the smelly, dirty harpoon infected them? I’m thinking no. If you could protect the whales or kill them, please protect them.
