Greenpeace supporter letter to whaling captain [|GREENPEACE]





__** The Sea Shepherd Organisation **__** - Paul Watson was an original founder of Greenpeace, and was involved in its first protest against commercial whaling. He and Henk Haazen were on a inflatable boat attempting to get between the whaling ship and the pod they were trying to protect. **
 * A cow was harpooned and the pod's bull breached towards the whaling vessel where it was subsequently shot, the bull submerged under the inflatable boat and Henk and Paul were worried that the bull would take it's anger out on their smaller vessel. **
 * The bull emerged from the water, his giant eye meeting those of Paul, who felt that the whale understood why they were out there and that they were trying to help from compassion. **
 * As the whale was dragged to the whaling ship Paul made a promise that he would do everything he could to prevent this occuring again. **
 * A television show //Whale Wars// was screened recently about the continual struggle. **
