THURSDAY, JANUARY 17, 2002 Animal rights activists don't want the Makah Nation of Washington to buy a $1.2 million boat because the groups say it will only help the tribe's controversial whale hunt. The tribe made a request for the boat to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. The tribe intends to use it for research and fisheries enforcement in Neah Bay. The anti-whalers are upset the tribe can hunt whales under a treaty. They have tried to stop the hunt but have failed. Get the Story:
