An adrenaline-fueled season of WHALE WARS is back, and the crew is in a life-and-death battle to find and stop Japanese ships from hunting whales in the name of research. At the far end of the globe, both the Sea Shepherd and the Japanese whalers engage in an environmental showdown with millions of dollars at stake. The Sea Shepherd risks it all to save the whales, even if that means not all crew members make it back to port together.
