Bottles Thrown as Activists Harass Whaler

Description:This video released by the Japan Institute of Cetacean Research, which Reuters cannot independently verify, shows Sea Shepherd anti-whaling activists hounding a Japanese harpoon ship in the Antarctic Ocean. The Australian conservationists can be seen throwing objects onto the whaling ship, which uses water cannon to try to keep the activists' boat at bay. A Japanese crew member says the objects look like bottles, and counts seven missiles thrown. (1:21)
