Dude, the high seas are not Africa, and Paul Watson is not an agent of any government. If you have a letter of marque and reprisal you are the agent of a government and can exercise enforcement of laws and treaties. No letter of marque and reprisal and you are a pirate. It is just that simple.

Poachers are shot in Africa because they are directly taking money out of the government's pocket. In case you dont' know it, most African nations GNP are hunting safaris, which the government taxes. So, a poacher is shot because he is trying to literally steal from the mafia, so to speak. Your anaology is moot.
