Greenpeace urges you to 'save Mister Splashy Pants' from Japanese whaling fleet
Having caved in to public demand, the humpback whale being monitored by Greenpeace is now officially to be known as Mister Splashy pants. Hurrah! etc. But what is to become of the sea-dwelling mammal we've all been talking about now?
Greenpeace is asking all those who voted in the poll and their friends to sign a petition to make the Japanese fisheries agency promise not to harpoon Mister Splashy Pants. The agency, Greenpeace claims, intends to kill 50 humpback whales in the Southern Ocean Whale Sanctuary, and Mister Splashy Pants could be one of those whales. So please, do your bit for whales everywhere and take 10 seconds to fill out the simple form.
And if you're suitably tickled by the MSP 'phenomoenon', you can now even buy a whole range of Mister Splashy Pants merchandise, with all proceeds going to Greenpeace.
