Greenpeace: Whaling and protest resumes

Southern Ocean ? The crews of the Esperanza and Arctic Sunrise are once again in action in the Southern Ocean after 10 days of no whales being killed.

Expedition leader Shane Rattenbury said: "We caught up with the whalers again late last night and saw seven whale carcasses on the deck. Four activists in an inflatable boat are on the water, near the Kyo Maru catcher ship, acting to defend the whales caught in the sights of the harpoons."
