Summary
| Description |
English: On January 3, 2007 Animal Liberation Victoria organised a lunchtime protest against Japanese whaling outside the building housing the Japanese Consulate - 360 Elizabeth street, Melbourne. About 250 people attended, "the biggest turn up we've ever had" said an Animal Liberation spokeperson. Jamie Yew, all dyed in red on a Japanese flag with the sun dripping "blood" made a photogenic piece of street theatre for media photographers. A gong was struck 985 times in about 40 minutes to symbolise the 985 whales being slaughtered by Japan this season. Whales can sometimes take up to 40 minutes to die in a very cruel and inhumane way from the explosive harpoons. People were invited to sign the Japanese flag as a symbol of their protest. |
