Whaling fleets failing to reach quotas
Some positive news on the whaling front, where it appears that protesters (including the Sea Shepherds) have managed to hinder the Japanese whaling fleet to an extent that they have failed to hit their targets for "scientific whaling".
See this BBC article.
Certainly a step in the right direction and one that will hopefully bring more awareness to the issue!
