Jarrod Darnall: Sea Shepherd requires the crew to be vegan while on board any of their ships. But they are not required to be vegan in their lives. They are volunteers with diverse backgrounds, and not all vegans.
Darren Heling: No, they are strictly on an all Whale meat diet.
Betsey Muehlbach: I've only watched the show once, but why would they be bad PR for vegans? I think what the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society does to try to stop whaling is fantastic.I would say some maybe are, but I doubt all of them are.

Elva Batie: "Sea Shepherd ships are vegan ships. We do not serve animal prod! ucts on board our vessels. We are not hypocritical.

Davina David: No.
Toya Braskett: I'm pretty sure they are some sort of vegetarian. I remember one of the first episodes there they interviewed the cook, he said something along the lines of that being the first time he's cooking an all vegan meal for the crew.
Carlton Lastrapes: I frequently spend my half an hour to read this blog's posts daily along with a mug of coffee.
