Target: The Hon Kevin Rudd MP, Minister for Foreign Affairs
Region: Australia
Background (Preamble):
Whaling is an inhumane act of extreme animal cruelty which needs to be stopped. Scientific whaling is having a serious impact on whale populations across the world. Sadly seven out of thirteen species of whales are now endangered and hanging on the verge of survival.

Australian statics show that more than 1,400 whales are killed every year in Australian Antarctic waters, and since 1986 more than 25,000 whales have been inhumanely slaughtered for profit. Whaling is unethical, inhumane and cruel; death by harpoon potentially imposes traumatic slow and extremely painful death, whales have been documented to be alive for up to two hours whilst they are pointlessly being slaughtered.

Whaling is a serious form of animal cruelty and must be stopped immediately; we have already lost too many precious living species on this planet and must act now to protect the gracious existence left that can be treasured for our generations to enjoy.
Petition:
We the undersigned demand just one simple request:

We call on The Minister of Foreign Affairs Kevin Rudd to put an end to the devastation of whaling in and near Australian waters arising from Japan.
