Sea Shepherd, the world’s leading direct-action marine conservation group, is currently working to raise desperately needed funds to purchase a fast, high-seas ship capable of intercepting and stopping the Japanese whaling fleet who continue to illegally kill whales in the Southern Ocean Whale Sanctuary. Come and watch rare, unreleased video of last year’s Antarctic campaign. Meet Chris Aultman, Sea Shepherd's brave helicopter pilot, who will return to the dangerous, frigid waters command the special helicopter that did such an outstanding job of spotting the illegal vessels and providing the world a bird’s-eye images of the criminal whalers. www.seashepherd.org

Ocean Defenders Alliance is a non-profit, direct-action marine conservation organization based in Orange County committed to protecting and restoring our beautiful coastal waters. With a starter boat donated by Sea Shepherd, ODA is striving to make the local reef ecosystems healthier and safer for ocean wildlife by significantly reducing the amount of man-made objects, especially derelict commercial fishing gear. These abandoned traps, nets, and lines continue to threaten fragile reef ecosystems, including marine mammals. ODA has removed tons of gear and freed many trapped lobsters. We will also show video of ODA’s activities. Please peruse our website to learn more.
