Animal rights activists just keep getting more and more inventive. This time, they’re not content merely dumping the dead bodies of dogs and cats outside a building in protest. Nope. This time they brought an entire whale.

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 17m (56ft) long and weighed 20 tonnes.

Activists are trying to demonstrate that there is no need to kill the mammals for research - as Japan does - because cadavers can be found. (Source: BBC News.)

I wonder if that’s why this whale seems bent on travelling to London.
