Sea Shepherd's most recent update from Operation No Compromise in the Southern Ocean, seems to show that they have had a great deal of success in preventing the Japanese whaling fleet from hunting over this season. The conservationists are trailing the Japanese factory ship, the Nisshin Maru, and it has now left the area that they have designated as their official whaling grounds. This means that the harpoon ships effectively have nowhere to land their catch, rendering them ineffective.

It would seem that the 2011 whaling season has been disastrous for the Japanese whaling fleet in the Southern Ocean.
