An anti-whaling boat(Ady Gil) has lost its bow during the collision ...

with the Shonan Maru, a japanese whaling ship. They say it's about conducting scientific research to get to know the whales better, but environmentalist and conservationists are little skeptical about their claim and perhaps it's about commercial whaling instead. Minor human injuries were the outcome of this collision from the Ady Gil. However, it's very important to remember that rescue is far from reach when you're located near Antarctica. Safety first. :)
