A Japanese whaling crew has fallen victim to a
dramatic full on assault by a school of killer whales, killing no less than 16
crew members and injuring 12, has reported the Japanese Government this
morning.
The crew of the MV Nisshin Maru (日新丸), Japan’s primary
whaling vessel and the world’s only whaler factory ship, was forced to leave
the deck temporarily as a gas leak was detected within the ship’s processing
factory that resulted in the ship being temporarily disabled all while
continuing to carry approximately 1,000 tons of oil.
The resulting panic lead members of the ship to jump off the boat before
proper emergency procedures were taken and lifeboats had been set to sea. The swimming crew members were then
ferociously attacked by a school of killer whales, that decimated a large
number of the crew within moments. “It was horrific” claims Asuka Kumara, a
mechanical engineer who witnessed the gruesome
scene. “The water was red with blood, there were bodies everywhere” he
recalls in tears.
"Within 30 minutes of the incident, 16 crew
members had disappeared into the ocean."
The incident occurred in the Southern Ocean Whale Sanctuary, near the South
Eastern Coast of South Africa, a controversial area to be whaling as a recent
international court ruling has ordered the country to ends its whale hunt in
the Antarctic. The East Asian nation halted its annual Antarctic whaling
mission after the U.N.’s International Court of Justice (ICJ) ruled last march
the hunt violated an international moratorium on commercial whaling.
“It seems Japan just doesn’t give a damn about international law” explains
environmental activist and spokesman for Greenpeace Canada, James Ben Shahali,
based in Vancouver. “The waste of life is always a shame, but the whales are
not to blame here, they were only doing what they are born to do: kill for
food” he adds.
Japan has slaughtered over 6,000 whales since commercial whaling was made
illegal by the International Whaling Commission (IWC) moratorium passed in
1986.
