Bob Barker‘s visit to Larry King Live was, as expected, phenomenal!

Hard to believe the octogenarian is keeping a pace most men half his age would struggle to compete with.

Barker sat alongside Sea Shepherd captain Paul Watson and explained why he gave $5 million to fight whale harpooning.

Harper and other activists probably breathed a sign of relief when the International Whaling Commission recently rejected a much publicized proposal to turn over a 24 year moratorium on commercial whaling.

Paul McCartney has given his support to an anti-whaling campaign that urges the Norwegian government not to lift a 25 year ban on commercial whaling.

McCartney said, “It’s time to end the cruel slaughter of whales and leave these magnificent creatures alone.

Kristin Bauer and her newlywed beau, musician Abri Van Statten, have a love for animals and the environment in common, as they’re both working with whale conservation.

“Right now, Abri and I are working with the International Fund for Animal Welfare and Pierce and Keely Brosnan to protect whales… (A key International Whaling Commission) vote is in the next two weeks,” Kristin told the Milwaukee Wisconsin Journal Sentinel.

Kristin is probably referring to the vote by the IWC on whether to lift the 25 year ban on commercial whaling.
