July 9, 2023 The Faroese whale killers do not care what the world thinks of them. Their utter contempt about international public opinion was on full display today as they drove a pod of pilot whales onto a beach in the Faroe Islands. Not just any beach, but specifically the beach inside the harbor of the capital city of Torshaven, where they proceeded to do their viciously cruel and bloody perversions directly in front of the passengers onboard the cruise…
July 7, 2023 We have not yet arrived at the Faroe Islands and already the Faroese government is getting all nervous and dramatic in anticipation of our approach. Høgni Hoydal, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign affairs, Industry and Trade said today that the crew of the John Paul DeJoria will be in serious trouble if the ship enters the external maritime jurisdiction. Wow, serious trouble! How many times have we heard that before? “The Minister of Foreign Affairs…
Introducing Simone Eisenbeiss, Ship Artist My name is Simone Eisenbeiss and I am from Switzerland. I discovered animal conservation as a child from my mother who has dedicated her life to saving animals from horrible conditions around world. I have had an unbreakable connection with animals since I was a toddler, and this unspoken language between two species is the inspiration for my art. Art has always been central to my life, but I never thought that it would have…
July 6, 2023 Commentary by Captain Paul Watson Founder of the Captain Paul Watson and Neptune’s Navy For all those who supported what we once were and wish to continue what we once were, the good news is that the Captain Paul Watson Foundation and Neptune’s Navy is the continuation of our same legacy of the last 45 years. What has been taken from us in a hostile takeover is the name that I created in 1977 and the logos…
July 5, 2023 After monitoring the situation in Iceland, the crew of Neptune’s Navy onboard the John Paul Dejoria came to Killybegs, Ireland to refuel and reprovision. Icelandic whaling boss Kristján Loftssen is trying to overturn the temporary ban on whaling imposed by Icelandic Minister for Fisheries and Agriculture Svandís Svavarsdóttir. The ban is in effect until August 31st which is almost the end of the Icelandic whaling season. Loftsson is trying to rally 32 members of the Icelandic Parliament…
July 4, 2023 As we complete preparation for our voyage to the Faroe Islands, we see that the Danish Navy has arrived in Torshaven. I anticipate that they may soon be chasing us around in their defense of Faroese cruelty and barbarity. Why does Denmark, a civilized nation continue to support the ugly depravity of the Grind in their Faroese territory? The Grindadrap continues to be an ugly blemish on the flag of Denmark.
July 1, 2023 The name Sea Shepherd once inspired global respect and admiration. It was an organization that dared to go where others would not, to say what needed to be said and to intervene where intervention was necessary. It was a kick ass controversial and provocative movement, blocking whaling ships, disrupting dolphin and seal slaughtering, stopping illegal fishing operations, tackling turtle poachers, confiscating illegal nets. This is still true for Sea Shepherd France and Sea Shepherd Brazil where the…
June 30, 2023 These two pictures perfectly illustrate the merciless, murderous, malevolent and monstrous reality of this pitiless, psychopathic and sociopathic on-going practice of a shamefully sadistic and repugnant culture. The Grindadrap. Translated from old Nordic it literally means the “murder of whales.” How does this ghoulishly gruesome pogrom of carnage, mutilation and destruction continue to exist in 2023? Is Denmark content with their association with such medieval barbarity, of decapitated heads stuck onto poles and hooks, of children poking…
June 29, 2023 We are delighted to announce the establishment of the Captain Paul Watson Foundation UK “Because of a hostile takeover of the organization and movement I created, I am not allowed to represent Sea Shepherd or use the logos that I created and designed. The renaming of Sea Shepherd UK allows us to continue the work we have been doing for over 42 years in the UK without being charged with trademark violations by those who now control…
