A harpoon with an explosive tip would be even more effective.  Then, you get
a  "kill" no matter what part of the beast you hit.

I've read some very interesting report in a yachting magazine last year.
Those big guys on yachts have tried small self-guided missile (bought cheap
in a local military surplus store); first attempt was a success. Second one
failed because a crew member began celebrating too soon after launch, and
has lit his cigarette; it  was a heat-guided missile, you know :-)... Man
can't go wrong with a harpoon.
