WHALES UNDER THREAT!

Within days, a proposal will be unveiled that could legalize commercial whale hunting for the first time in 24 years.

An outcry now -- in the days and hours before these countries decide their positions -- could stiffen the spines of those who want to protect whales by keeping whaling illegal. Avaaz has launched a last-moment petition which will be delivered to the delegates to the IWC every time we raise 100,000 signatures -- sign here and forward this message:
