Event Information

Dear Sea Shepherd Supporters,

Paul Watson, founder of the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society has been arrested and is jail in Germany with the threat of being extradited to Costa Rica. In spite of Interpol's notice saying Captain Watson is not considered a criminal and in spite of video evidence showing he and his crew did not commit a crime, Watson is being held for the work the Sea Shepherd did for the government of Guatemala to stop illegal shark finning as seen in the film Sharkwater.

Please add your voice calling for his release: www.seashepherd.org
