I do fish, here is a small one caught off the Florida beach many moons ago:

Completely off topic, but I was on a beach when a guy caught a baby shark about that size and was show boating by holding it just like you have it to show off to some girls.. shark comes to life and curls into him biting him in the thigh right next to his groin

Didn't really draw any blood but scared the crap out of him and was great entertainment for the girls

... value of human life ?

Humans are like locusts, they appear in masses and destroy everything on their way. They come to a territory, occupy and exploit it until there is nothing left for other lifeforms.
They need no protection, they are like a virus that causes diseases.
What needs protection is the planet, protection from a disease called mankind.
By the way, a capitalist rule says, the cheapest product is the one that is available in abundance. Seen from this point of view, life of man is the cheapest form of life on earth.

... seen from an objective point of view you are right, I`m not worth much more than you or anyone else and we are both rather part of the problem than of the solution and we both are expendable.
But there is one thing called "instinct of preservation" that every lifeform has and because of that, my life to me is the most precious form of life on earth and I would do anything to protect it. That has nothing to do with rationalism, it rather has to do with instinct. Dont forget, besides beeing "the crown of creation", (what we like to call ourselves), we are all nothing but animals.

You people always make me laugh, do you have any idea what you are talking about? Quite frankly you sound like the insane priest in Jeff Waynes War Of The Worlds!

Your heroic seashepard's that roam the ocean looking for the human scum to harpoon? LOL

Did it not occur to you that the ship they do it in will burn more diesel in one voyage than the average family car in a month and throws out more pollution than that family and its cars combined.

I'm all for protection of animals mate, but dumb logic about destroying all humans, that we are a disease, that life is cheap and worth nothing compared to that pretty fish or whale, Is that whale gonna save your butt when your ship sinks?
No a human being in a sky polluting helicopter will, and he/she will take you to a hospital where other parasitic vermin known as doctors will use technology and their skill to save your hypothermic body.
Or how about if your house was on fire, and the fire service can to save you up at your window, took your dog but pushed you back inside instead?

Dont be such a plonker, the whole reason why life is regarded as cheap in this world is because ignorant people say so.

Jesus, wether you believe in his as the son of god, a prophet or just a really good human, said the oceans are there to be fished, at one point in history fishing was the only way to generate food.

If companies take the micheal and over fish then the government that you have voted in does the right thing by pressure of the public to slow it down.

You want to be a real hero go save a life, a human one! because my friend nature is crueler and any human could ever be.

People like you harrass me every time i go into town, "sponser a puppy...save a panda...." on and on always trying to shame people into giving money to their organization so they can give only 10% to the real cause.

... thanks for all your answers, positive and negative ones.
It doesent matter if you are pro or contra. What matters is that you think about it!

I might add whale tastes delicious, particularily with a sweet onion relish.
