book is a trail-blazer...
all those years ago trying
to raise awareness
endangered species.
He’s also a whale expert
(see Leviathan)... and
has over the years been
trying to get the Japanese,
Icelandics and Norwegians
to stop killing whales... and
the rest of the world to stop
the killing of an estimated
100 million sharks a year for
Shark Fin soup – a practice
so cruel and stupid (shark
fin is like cardboard..
has no taste and a pitiful
nutritional value) it
beggars belief.
