Watson threatens to ram Jap whalers.

Quote:
Australia has urged Japanese whalers and environmental activists heading for a faceoff in the Antarctic Ocean to show restraint.


Greenpeace and the environmental group, Sea Shepherd, have each sent a ship to Antarctic waters to try to disrupt Japan's plan to kill more than 1,000 whales, including humpbacks - its largest hunt yet.

Greenpeace has vowed to stage a non-violent campaign but Sea Shepherd's Paul Watson has threatened in the past to ram his ship, recently renamed the Steve Irwin, into Japanese whalers.

I'm wondering if whales can be alerted by means of underwater sonics. There has been that much study of their language that surely somebody has identified whalish for 'scarper....it's the Japs' ?

Still, a good ramming might have to do.
