Sea Shepherd Conservation Society

The Sea Shepherd Conservation Society is an international non-profit organization dedicated to marine wildlife conservation and environmental protection. Founded in 1977 by Paul Watson, it uses direct action tactics to intervene against activities like illegal fishing and whaling. The organization is known for its high-profile campaigns and its fleet of ships that patrol oceans to enforce marine laws and protect endangered species. Sea Shepherd aims to raise awareness about ocean conservation issues and actively fights to protect ecosystems and marine life through grassroots activism and partnerships with other environmental groups.
