Why whaling should be ban ?

The second largest mammal on the planet, the massive fin whale is hunted exclusively in the North Atlantic by Hvalur hf under the direction of CEO Kristján Loftsson. Despite the efforts of Captain Paul Watson Foundation UK to expose the truth of Hvalur’s whaling and its impacts, hunting may still continue into 2024 and beyond.

Captain Paul Watson Foundation UK is the ONLY organisation to document every single harpooned whale landed in Iceland. This is VITAL to ensure that each breach of the regulations is fully evidenced and reported to the Icelandic authorities. But running this campaign is expensive so please consider supporting our work with a regular monthly donation . 

WE CAN DO THIS TOGETHER.

YOU can HELP US save these whales

from Loftsson’s deadly harpoons

“I’m not worried. I know the people [of Iceland] and the politics better than many. It will be no problem. I am confident that we will be whaling next year.”

Kristján Loftsson, in an interview with The Guardian, October 2023

Our operations in 2018,  2022 and 2023 uncovered hygiene, safety and environmental breaches as well as exposing the barbaric reality of dead pregnant females, poorly shot animals and the suffering caused by the use of up to four harpoons.
