Considering that there is no humane way to kill a whale or any other wild sea mammal, and slaughters of any kind against wild life cannot be considered in current times under any circumstances, the following countries are brutally attempting against life in this planet:
Canada for its annual bloody ‘legal’ slaughter of thousands of defenceless 12-week-old harp seals being brutally clubbed (42 per cent or more are skinned alive) and its unawareness of endangered Polar Bear because of the irreversible climate change. Grounds: Business, traditions, dangerous government incompetence, commercial fur, cod problem due to overfishing. Hunt: Not necessary. Change business: Promote tourism. Solution: Boycott. Captain Watson organized his first on ice interventions against the seal kill in 1976. The Sea Shepherd Conservation Society was the first organization to take a ship into the ice packs to protect seals back in 1979. Japan due to its annual slaughter under the guise of an IWC ruling which allows nations to kill whales for "scientific research" of thousands of Minkie and Pilot whales and endangered humback, fin, gray and sei whales as well as sharks for sophisticated Japanese meats and for the cruel killing of hundreds of dolphins just accused of eating fish from the oceans where they belong. Grounds: 'Traditions', business, tuna overfishing. Hunt: Not necessary. Change business: Change diet, promote tourism to watch whales. Solution: Boycott
In 1982, Captain Watson negotiated the end to the dolphin slaughter at Iki Island. Sea Shepherd will be returning this year to confront the illegal whaling activities of the Japanese whaling industry. Norway for resuming commercial whaling by exploiting a loophole in the International Convention for the Regulation of Whaling. Grounds: Business. Hunt: Not necessary.

Greenland due to the largest slaughter in the world after Japan of hundreds of Minkes and Pilot Whales, for also the killing of hundreds of smaller whales, immature belugas and narwhals and its brutal hunting that amply exceeds quotas and bring at risk Minkies and Pilot whales and however hunting is placed under the category of "Aboriginal Subsistence Whaling".

Captain Paul Watson has led campaigns to oppose the hunt in 1985, 1986 and in 2000. No whales were killed while Sea Shepherd patrolled the Islands. Sea Shepherd is working to shut down slaughter in Faeroe Islands.

Other killings Hunters for their disgrace hobby of killing any wild animal. For those inhabitants that deserve the right to live as you and me and however they are constantly being killed just for human pleasure, please, don’t go to any of these countries. These countries and their governments deserve nothing more than be alone in their own misery. If you are from one of these countries, as we are from Spain, but you respect nature and life as we do and you don’t understand those sick attitudes, then this message doesn’t go with you, sure, you should join Sea Shepherd Conservation Society.
