POV

The Islands and The Whales: The Sea Shepherd

Anti-whaling activists, including Baywatch's Pamela Anderson, explain why they are trying to stop the grind. They insist that they aren't trying to undermine Faroese culture; they are only trying to protect a sentient mammal species. They are challenged by locals, who note that their climate doesn't allow for much agricultural production, so they can't easily follow the suggestion to eat less meat
