AR-News: (UK)Whaling 'too cruel to continue'

[Animalconcerns]

Animal welfare campaigners say methods of killing whales are so inhumane
that all whaling operations should cease.

when hit, and tests to decide exactly when a whale is dead are inadequate.

The Whalewatch report, Troubled Waters, is published to mark the start of
a global campaign against whaling.

Coalition members, from 55 countries, include the World Society for the
Protection of Animals and the Whale and Dolphin Conservation Society.
