Antarctica Whaling

Antarctica Whaling
In this photo released by Sea Shepherd Conservation Society, Japanese whaling ship Yushin Maru No. 3 shoots a water cannon at Sea Shepherd's inflatable boat in the Southern Ocean off Antarctica Saturday, Jan. 1, 2011. The anti-whaling activists were chasing the fleet in the hopes of interrupting Japan's annual whale hunt, which kills up to 1,000 whales a year.
