What is transshipment? At sea, krill isn’t brought back to port. It’s offloaded to carrier ships… so fishing never stops. The net stays in the water as much as possible, all season long. Day after day. Night after night. ❄️🚢 This is how the industry becomes a floating factory. Continuous extraction in one of the most important feeding grounds on Earth. 🐋 All the machinery is there to keep going. No pause. No break. No relief for the ecosystem. Krill is the foundation of life here. This is industrial plunder. Share this. Help expose it. 🌊🔥 📸 Martina Birrer / Sea Shepherd #AntarcticaSOS #KrillCrisis #StopThePlunder #EdgeOfTheWorld #SeaShepherd

A passagem do Bandero - navio ativista operado pela @captainpaulwatson e pela @seashepherdfrance que realizou intervenções contra a pesca predatória de krill na Antártica - por Ilhabela representou mais do que a presença de uma embarcação de conservação marinha no litoral brasileiro.  Ao longo dos dias de visitação, o navio se transformou em um espaço de troca, escuta e aproximação entre diferentes realidades conectadas pela proteção da vida no oceano. O trabalho conduzido em alto-mar carrega uma complexidade que nem sempre é facilmente percebida: operações que envolvem investigação, monitoramento, documentação, intervenção e resistência às ameaças constantes aos ecossistemas marinhos. Trazer esse contexto para perto fortalece a conexão entre quem atua diretamente e quem em terra integra essa rede de proteção. Durante a visitação, o convés se tornou um espaço de educação ambiental e conscientização: os visitantes puderam conhecer a estrutura do navio, ouvir histórias de ações e refletir sobre o papel que cada um ocupa na relação com o oceano. As imagens revelam encontros, expressões e momentos que traduzem a potência desse tipo de iniciativa. Existe um valor simbólico em tornar acessível aquilo que, na maior parte do tempo, acontece longe da costa. A atuação da Sea Shepherd Brasil na recepção do navio em águas brasileiras para a preparação para a próxima operação e nas atividades de educação ambiental a bordo fortalecem a consciência ambiental e ampliam o entendimento sobre os impactos das atividades humanas, ações que caminham junto com as ações diretas realizadas no mar. A experiência em Ilhabela reforça que a conservação marinha depende de múltiplas frentes atuando de forma complementar. O engajamento nasce do contato, da informação e da conexão. Seguimos atuando, conectando e mobilizando - no mar e em terra. E o Bandero? O Bandero parte para a nova missão da @captainpaulwatson, na Islândia: Operation 86, contra a caça baleeira.  Agradecemos à brava tripulação e seguimos juntos em nossa luta pela preservação marinha com ações diretas não violentas. 📸: @diego_baravelli

What's the infamous Drake Passage? As Sea Shepherd prepares for another Antarctic mission, one crew member reflects on the journey. The Drake Passage is not for the faint of heart—powerful seas, relentless winds, and days of uncertainty stand between us and Antarctica. But protecting the Southern Ocean has never been about taking the easy route. It’s about showing up, no matter the conditions. #SeaShepherd #AntarcticMission #DrakePassage #SouthernOcean #stoptheplunder 🎥 by @newton.se

From stopping whalers to standing up to the #krillfleet, we have proven that resistance works. But today, the stakes are higher than ever. As our crew prepares to head back to #Antarctica, the growing threat is putting whales and the entire Southern Ocean ecosystem at risk. Industrial krill fishing is expanding fast, while protections fall behind. To face this escalating crisis, laws must evolve, protections must be strengthened, and pressure from consumers and retailers must grow. Here is how you can help right now 👇 1️⃣ Share this issue and help others understand the krill crisis 2️⃣ Become an Ocean Warrior. Monthly support, any amount, fuels frontline action. Link in bio 3️⃣ Say no to krill products and help expose where krill hides in everyday items This fight is far from over. Together, we can stop the plunder 🌊✊ #StopThePlunder #Antarctica #KrillCrisis #ProtectTheOcean 🎥 Alice Gregoire / Sea Shepherd

🇧🇷 OBRIGADO, BRASIL! THANK YOU BRAZIL! 🇧🇷 By welcoming The Bandero, Brazil has shown the world what it stands for: 🌎 That it cares about the environment. ✊That it stands with those who defend it. 🐋That it chooses our blue planet over commercial interests. Brazil has long been an ally of Captain Paul Watson and the movement to protect life at sea. Its support sends a clear message: the oceans matter, and those who fight for them are not alone. Having worked so hard to protect our ocean, the crew and ship were left stranded when The Falklands chose to side with commercial interests and deny them access. Nathalie Gil from Sea Shepherd Brazil is currently onboard The Bandero, standing shoulder to shoulder with the crew on this vital mission. From Antarctica, to Brazil, we stand united! 🇧🇷 Show your appreciation for Brazil welcoming our crew below, drop your flag in the comments! 👇🇧🇷 In collaboration with @seashepherdfrance

There are moments out here where it becomes almost impossible to keep count. Whales surfacing in every direction, again and again. It is exactly why the science team is here. Through transects, every sighting is recorded to understand how these animals are using this space. And a pattern is taking shape. The same areas targeted by the krill fishing fleet are also some of the most active feeding grounds for whales. This is how you turn observation into evidence. 🎥 The full story is on YouTube. Watch it, then help make it seen.

Sea Shepherd blocks illegal whaling ships in Antarctic waters — ramming them with no weapons and no backup. These crews sail into some of the most hostile waters on Earth and physically place themselves between hunters and whales. Their campaigns have directly interrupted illegal whaling operations, protecting thousands of whales through direct action, ship interceptions, and net cutting. The most extreme conservation tactic in the ocean. #ocean #deepsea #oceanpulse #seashepherd #whaling

FOLLOW US! FOLLOWS MATTER ✊ The ocean is full of incredible stories and we're lucky enough to witness them every day. One day we're flying drones over whales. The next we're rescuing sea turtles, removing ghost nets, monitoring sea lion colonies, protecting coral reefs, or searching for the world's rarest marine mammal. There is never a dull day at Sea Shepherd. Every follow, like, comment, and share helps more people discover what's happening beneath the waves. And every piece of Sea Shepherd merch helps fuel our ships, support our crews, and keep us out on the front lines protecting the ocean. So come along for the adventure. Meet the wildlife, celebrate conservation wins, and see what it's really like to defend the ocean one mission at a time. The ocean needs all of us.

#TBT UCBio 2026 "Naquele dia eu deixei o planeta Terra e entrei no planeta Oceano." A frase do Capitão Paul Watson marcou sua participação na Primeira Conferência Nacional de Unidades de Conservação para a Biodiversidade, realizada em Curitiba, durante a palestra "Conservation Activism: Make a Difference for the Future". O oceano é um mundo complexo, interligado e essencial para a vida no planeta. Um mundo que sustenta espécies, ecossistemas e processos naturais que ainda lutamos para compreender e proteger. Durante a UCBio 2026, a Sea Shepherd Brasil levou ao debate a importância da conservação marinha e o papel do ativismo na defesa da vida no planeta. Além da palestra de @paul.watson.1426 , nossa presidente, @nathalie_gil__ apresentou a palestra "Sem Azul, Não Há Verde: fechando a lacuna da proteção marinha", reforçando a urgência de ampliar a proteção dos ecossistemas marinhos. A UCBio reuniu pesquisadores, estudantes, gestores públicos, organizações da sociedade civil e lideranças ambientais de todo o país. Espaços como esse são fundamentais para fortalecer alianças, compartilhar conhecimento e construir soluções para os desafios da conservação. Proteger o oceano é proteger a própria teia da vida. #ucbiobio2026 #SeaShepherdBrasil #paulwatson #biocentrismo
