They hired local investigators posing as buyers to obtain samples. Using a portable laboratory, the scientists used DNA testing and a whale DNA database to identify the types of whale meat being sold in the two countries. They also used DNA profiling to identify whether separate samples came from the same whale. 'If we find samples from two courttries are the same, that will be direct evidence of smuggling," Gina Lento said. In a similar case in California, fish and game officials recently used a newly developed technique for typing deer DNA to show that 90kg of venison from a man's freezer came from more deer than the hunting limit allows. The technique, among other things, can determine whether meat is from a male or female, and how many deer it came from. Further work is needed to show whether whale meat being sold in Japan, South Korea and other markets comes from areas of the globe where whaling is banned, Gina Lento said. "We don't have direct, definitive proof, but our DNA evidence suggests there are some very sticky questions ahead.' Gina Lento and Scott Baker are supported by grants from the Inteniational Fund for Animal Welfare and the University of Auckland Research Council. In addition to providhig their findings to the Whaling Commission, they publish their results in academic journals.
