Bring Quotes
The Brer Rabbit ploy has been quite effective for me. When a country is talking about prosecuting me, I demand to be charged and put on trial and offer to pay my own airfare. They know that I'm going to bring a lot of international media with me and put their whaling programme on trial, and they decide it's better to keep quiet and do nothing.

Bells Quotes
If this hunt goes through, there will be other requests coming to the Russian government to hunt belugas. Before long we could have a hunt of a couple thousand Belugas. Once you start commercial whaling in any species, you have to make sure all of the bells and whistles are in place, that all the regulations are there from A to Z. Every time we have had a commercial hunt of whales there has been over-exploitation.

Agency Quotes
The Fisheries Agency of Japan, the ICR and the whaling fleet are out of control. The hunt is bankrupt on all counts: scientifically, ecologically, morally and financially. With the market for whale meet in Japan collapsing and stock piles rising, it is clear that the whaling business is bad. Over the coming months we will be calling on consumers world-wide to join us in telling the companies that whaling is bad for business. Not everyone can join us on the high seas to defend the whales but they can join us on the high streets.
