Whale Hunting Should Be Banned

There is a boundary to protect your culture and heritage on the same page as modern moral values. It is difficult to answer this question. It is because there is neither a correct answer nor a wrong answer. An example of this problem is the situation in the Faroe Islands. For centuries people in the Faroe Islands were looking for a long whale; they are part of their culture and are part of their identity. Furthermore, it is one of the food sources they have. However, the world is concerned about the island's customs.

We should obey the precautionary principle. It is impossible to determine the number of whales, but it may not be as healthy as the prozilla said. Before the hunting whale was banned internationally in 1982 (carried out in 1986), some species were on the verge of extinction. If the ban is lifted, regulation of what happens in the ocean is inherently difficult, so it can easily happen again. Even though hunting is restricted to more kinds of whales, other less common species may be mistakenly killed.

Contemporary whaling activities are intensely debated. The countries that support commercial whaling, especially Iceland, Japan, Norway, hope to cancel some whale fishing bans. Anti-whaling nations and environmental protection groups oppose the abolition of ban. According to the International Whaling Commission moratorium, indigenous whaling is permitted to make a living. Over the past decades, whale watching has become an important industry in many parts of the world; in one country whale watching replaced whaling, but in other countries, between two business models I have uneasy tension.

In 1966, the International Whaling Commission prohibited the whaling of the blue whale. In the 1970s, 330,000 blue whales were captured in Antarctica, 33,000 blue whales were captured in the remaining southern hemisphere, and 8,200 were captured. The North Pacific has 7000 in the North Atlantic Ocean. The largest original population in Antarctica was reduced to only 360 people, or about 0.15% of its initial population. Since the introduction of the whaling ban, the research has examined whether the population of the blue whale whale that is dependent on conservation is increasing or stable. In Antarctica, since the end of illegal Soviet whaling, the best estimate shows an annual increase of 7.3%, but still less than 1% of the original level.
