Vegetarian Star

Clive Standen knows what it means to be a tough guy.

He plays the fearless warrior Rollo on the History Channel’s drama Vikings.

Vikings may fight, raid and do other seemingly barbaric activities, but the one thing this Norse hero won’t do is whale.

In a PSA for the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society, Standen explains why “Real Men Don’t Whale,” and regardless of what took place in ancient times, there’s no place for whaling today.

“I may play a merciless Viking on TV but there’s no place for such barbaric behavior in the 21st Century,” Standen says in the video. “Join me in making whaling ancient history once and for all.”

Sea Shepherd Captain Paul Watson has experienced the tragic loss of his brother, Stephen Michael Watson, to cancer.

Watson took the time to remember his brother on a recent post online, discussing both his family loyalty and support of Sea Shepherd missions.

“My brother was devoted to Sea Shepherd and for years hosted fundraisers in Toronto and London, Ontario. His eldest son Sean first joined the crew of the Sea Shepherd II when he was fourteen on our drift net campaigns. His youngest daughter Hillary will soon be joining the crew of the Steve Irwin. Stephen himself participated in an important but legal secret mission for Sea Shepherd and was instrumental in its success.”
