Sea Shepherd E-News: Operation Zero Tolerance 6FEB13

UPDATE on Operation Zero Tolerance and a video of Capt Paul Watson in ABC (Australian Broadcasting Corp) from Sea Shepherd....

Dear Craig,

Thanks to you we have managed to ensure the illegal Japanese whalers have killed no whales this season. Operation Zero Tolerance is living up to its name! That was the first January that zero whales have been killed!

With your continuing support of Operation Zero Tolerance, we are sure we can make this campaign a massive success. Please keep us in Antarctic waters as long as necessary and donate to the Whales Navy.
SSS Bob Barker Tailed by the Attack Dog of the Whaling Fleet
Following the first no-kill January, the SSS Bob Barker found itself being tailed by the Japanese whaler's ship the Shonan Maru 2.

In order to escape the armed Japanese Government vessel, which is known as the attack dog of Japan's illegal whaling fleet, the SSS Bob Barker travelled into the Australian territorial waters of Macquarie Island.

The Macquarie Base commander had been notified by the Australian Antarctic Division to expect the potential arrival of the Shonan Maru No. 2. Learn what happened next...
Australian Government Orders Japanese Whalers to Leave Australian Waters
The Japanese security vessel, the Shonan Maru No. 2, which is carrying armed coast guards, entered the Australian Exclusive Economic Zone around Macquarie Island in pursuit of the SSS Bob Barker.

The Australian government has officially notified the Japanese government to order their vessel to remain outside of Australian waters. Find out if the whalers followed the orders...
With increasing support from the Australian government, due to your zero tolerance of whales being murdered, we are getting that much closer to keeping the Whale Sanctuary safe.

Unfortunately it's not over yet, but with your help I truly believe we can make this campaign live up to its name- Operation Zero Tolerance!

For the oceans,
