		<description><![CDATA[Seriously. As late as the 1970&#8242;s, Australia and the United States were amongst the whaling nations. After even the International Whaling Commission (IWC), which is a pro-whaling organization, called for a moratorium on killing whales, nearly all nations stopped the activity. Why? What changed? We became to clever, too capable of killing. Where once it... <a href="http://www.protecttheocean.com/where-have-all-the-whalers-gone/"> [Continue Reading]</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In the latest of repercussions from the BP debacle in the Gulf of Mexico, we got word of baby dolphins washing up dead on the shores Mississippi and Alabama -- at ten times the normal rate of stillborn mortality.... As Protect The Ocean warned last summer, the use of Corexit has made a tragic event  into a full-blown disaster of epic proportions.  We are just now beginning to see the effects of this myopic decision.  Corporate greed must never be allowed to choose and control the choices made in our planet's waters again.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Cetacean activists from all over the world have stood opposed to these dolphin hunters and their vulgar practices.  Historically, that has put them at odds with the Japanese "fishermen" and the Japanese government.  But now light is falling on these barbaric practices, and respected individuals within Japan are beginning to speak up against the slaughters.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Yeah, right, SeaWorld.  OSHA and all the other orca experts don't understand but YOU do.  That's why your precautions have been so (un)successful... OSHA's probe "revealed that SeaWorld trainers had an extensive history of unexpected and potentially dangerous incidents involving killer whales at its various facilities." ... the neuroscientist replied "I'm not trying to second-guess what was in this particular whale's mind, but, certainly, if we are talking about whether killer whales have the wherewithal and the cognitive capacity to intentionally strike out at someone, or to be angry, or to really know what they are doing, I would have to say the answer is yes." ...  capturing and keeping dolphins in captivity is this century's slavery. ... How intelligent must a creature be before it "deserves" the inalienable rights we afford ourselves?

They eat jellyfish, and have been around since before the dinosaur.
