Former Baywatch star Pamela Anderson has joined the Board of Directors of Sea Shepherd Conservation Society (SSCS), and will work with the marine conservation nonprofit to 'play an active role in the organisation's mission to defend ocean wildlife and habitats worldwide'.

Anderson commented 'I have joined Sea Shepherd in the Faroe Islands to oppose the mass slaughter of pilot whales, and opposed Iceland's hunting of endangered whales. My goal, and Sea Shepherd's, is to bring an end to whaling, and I believe that together we can achieve it'.
