BERLIN (Reuters) - Renowned marine conservationist Paul Watson, who is fighting extradition from Germany to Costa Rica over a 2002 campaign against shark finning, vowed on Monday that his fleet would head to the Antarctic without him to fight whaling.
Watson, who was arrested eight days ago at Frankfurt airport, was freed on bail in Germany of 250,000 euros ($319,200)but must not leave the country.
His arrest, on a warrant from Costa Rican authorities, took his Sea Shepherd campaign group, famous for its disruption of whaling, by surprise.
