We Are Sea Shepherd

Sea Shepherd’s Mission Statement

Established in 1977, Sea Shepherd Conservation Society (SSCS) is an international non-profit, marine wildlife conservation organization. Our mission is to end the destruction of habitat and slaughter of wildlife in the world’s oceans in order to conserve and protect ecosystems and species.

Sea Shepherd uses innovative direct-action tactics to investigate, document, and take action when necessary to expose and confront illegal activities on the high seas. By safeguarding the biodiversity of our delicately balanced ocean ecosystems, Sea Shepherd works to ensure their survival for future generations.

Sea Shepherd has been patrolling the high seas and enforcing conservation law worldwide for over 40 years. With your help, we have saved countless lives of dolphins, seals, whales, fish, and much more!

Your support is what drives our enforcement and conservation efforts, strengthens our resolve, and makes possible the successes we achieve.

Sea Shepherd campaigns cannot happen without your help.
Your continued investment in Sea Shepherd is crucial in securing a future for our fragile oceans and the wonderful beings that inhabit them.

Together, we will succeed.
