Cruise Line's Apology: Passengers Witness Brutal Whale Slaughter

Ambassador Cruise Lines has issued an apology to its passengers after one of its ships arrived at port in the Faroe Islands during a whale hunt, where dozens of pilot whales were being slaughtered. The cruise line expressed disappointment and objection to the practice, stating that sustainability is one of their core values. The government of the Faroe Islands defended the hunt, emphasizing its cultural significance and regulated nature. Ambassador Cruise Lines, in partnership with ORCA, a charity dedicated to protecting marine mammals, has been working to encourage change. The Faroe Islands government maintains that the hunt is sustainable and the meat is distributed equally among participants.
