Back on topic.

It would be something else to target ships that were fishing, say, tuna. But whales have much more intelligence.

Whale Brain and Intelligence: Behaviour Song Communication Suggest Complex Thinking

Whales boast the brain cells that 'make us human' - life - 27 November 2006 - New Scientist

As noted on the other thread, that they have so much intelligence makes possible an argument that these creatures are people, not mindless animals like sharks. Hunt sharks, not Whales!

I like what they are doing, but ramming your ships "accidentally" into another ship in freezing waters isn't worth the human lives. They need to find better methods haha, otherwise its a great TV show.

Watch the footage again. The only obviously intentional ramming was done by the whaling fleet. The first time for the Sea Shepherds was probably an accident, the second time may or may not have been, I believe it wasn't intentional.
