They could send a second ship for the meat and leave the whales the hell alone.
Excellent idea! And that'll give them something to eat after they kill the last shark. :-)

I hate to see what those ships have done to the Sea of Cortez. It breaks my heart.

See, I'm not as nuts as people think.
Now wait a minute, I don't think we established that at all. :-)

Around here we have Taiwanese fishermen, not Japanese. The trawlers drag a huge chain mat over a coral reef and they pull a net behind it. The chain mat scares all the fish up into the net. Also reduces the reef to rubble. One trawler can wreck more reef in a day than a village full of dynamite fisherman could in a year. Now that's progress.....
