A huge beached whale has been dumped outside the Japanese embassy in Berlin in a Greenpeace anti-whaling protest.
The controversial environmental activists hauled the fin whale to Berlin from the Baltic coast after finding it beached on a sandbank. The dead whale measured 17 metres (56 ft) long and weighed 20 tons.
Activists are trying to demonstrate that there is no need to kill the mammals for research - as Japan does - because cadavers can be found.
I couldn’t resist this one. What an innovative tactic.
Can you imagine something comparable for your own favorite politician?
