Dear John,
In early June, our crew documented one of the largest Grindadrap hunts in recent memory—291 pilot whales killed in the village of Leynar, including pregnant females and juveniles. But what they captured didn’t end at the shoreline.
On July 1st, Sea Shepherd will release a powerful new video documenting the hunt, the aftermath, and the evidence that challenges everything the Faroese government claims about this practice.
The Grindadrap is still legal under Faroese law and falls outside the protections of the International Whaling Commission. Officials say the meat is shared and nothing is wasted—but our footage tells a different story. Meat and organs, suitable for human consumption, were discarded and dumped into the sea.

Because entire family groups are driven ashore and killed together, these hunts don’t just impact individuals—they threaten the genetic diversity and long-term resilience of the species.
Some ask why we don’t intervene by force. But that approach risks everything: criminalization, loss of access, and the progress we’ve made through global coalition building. Our strategy is built around lasting change—through documentation, political pressure, and creating space for Faroese citizens who oppose the Grind to step forward.
