Sea Shepherd agrees not to obstruct Japanese whalers

The Sea Shepherd Conservation Society has agreed not to physically attack Japanese whaling fleet and crew as part of a judicial agreement, Japan's Institute of Cetacean Research, or ICR, reported Tuesday.

The nonprofit, known for its aggressive campaigns against Japanese whaling ships, and the ICR have been fighting a court case following the nonprofit's initial attempts to stop Japan from capturing whales allegedly for scientific purposes.
