Most Japanese whale kills in Aussie haven

Most Japanese whale kills in Aussie haven :

"Federal Environment Minister Ian Campbell said a report by the Japanese Whale Research Program confirmed 50 humpback whales would be killed next summer, as well as 850 Antarctic minkes and 50 fin whales. He said maps in the report showed 90 per cent of kills last summer were in the Australian sanctuary."

I like the way Senator Campbell gets hold of the facts and then constructs a position. What kind of sanctuary for whales do we have? This is shocking. The killing of pregnant whales is so unacceptable. I really think it's a crying shame we are not protecting our planet but I thank Senator Campbell for getting the facts to us.
