Greenpeace 'Orca-strate' whale killing
Pascuala, the whale in need of a good 'green activist' mealReaders may remember the story of Knut the polar bear cub rejected by its mother and being hand-reared in a German zoo. They might also remember the furore created (and still continuing) over the claims by Green activists that the cub should be killed...as being hand-reared 'set a bad precedent' (i.e. didn't fit with the Green moralists screwed up worldview). Well they have been at it again.
This time Greenpeace are trying to Orca-strate the killing of a wounded, beached orphan whale as, they believe, saving its life by sending it to a US marine theme park would "set a bad precedent".
Here's a thought that could only enhance the quality of life for us all: save the whale and the polar bear as best we can - and when each is fully grown let's set the president of Greenpeace in with them to get 'better acquainted'. Now how would that be for 'setting a bad president'?
There was a time when Greenpeace used to campaign to 'Save The Whales!' Now they want them dead. Better dead than bred, apparently.

Well, Pascuala is dead now. It is too late for her, but we are hoping that at least something good comes out of this, on my site:

there is a PDF of a press release that the NGO I belong too, another NGO, both involved in the care of the baby orca, algong with the park she was in, prepared. There is a version in english:
CASO PASCUALA PRENSA - INGLES that you may be interested in.
Also we are collecting signatures to support a proposal we are delivering to authorities regarding this case:
