Whaling is Killing Thousands, Bringing Whales to Near Extinction

Japan has used this excuse since 1986. It is unreasonable that Japan seems to have not acquired new knowledge about breeding, migration, and other customs of mammals in the decades that Japan used this excuse. When Australia took Japan to the International Court of Justice in order to doubt the validity of the Japanese science whaling industry, Australia's court agent Bill Campbell said, "Japan has made commercial whaling in laboratory science I am trying to conceal it. " Reporter: "You do not kill 935 whales each year for scientific research.

During the 20th century, hunting robbed about 3 million whales and reduced the population by over 80%. Only in the 1930s, more than half of oceanic blue whale died. The whaling industry itself in 1966 announced that it would stop the killing of humpback whales to prevent the humpback whale extinction. We killed the whale quickly, thoroughly killed and destroyed the industries that depend on it.

Thousands of blue whales are roaming in the north Atlantic before uncontrolled whaling. Whaling started by 1530 and intensified to an unsustainable level along the east coast of the United States in the middle of the 17th century. For the next 2 nd half century, it will at least occasionally continue through the North Atlantic. By 1700, the right whale became very rare, so it was impossible to continue whaling wholly in most countries. Norwegian coast and Iceland still rarely see the right whale yet, but some scientists believe that the population has been extinct by whaling, leaving only the rest of the East and the Canadian east coast.

Thousands of whales have died during this period despite the strange death between 1998 and 2000, but to date the ash of the East Pacific has become one of the few successful whale protection cases . From the 1950s to the beginning of the 20th century, the introduction of a so-called floating factory - a modern whaling ship - enabled rapid evacuation on board and improvement of carcasses, the estimated number of whales is less than 1,000. Currently, we estimate that a small part of the population is 18,000 people. In contrast, almost all other whale species turn back much more slowly, and some scientists presume that none of them will reach even the previous half.

Micah Messer: "In the past century, whales have given devastating blows to whale populations, especially humpback whales being almost completely extinct, the world's population has decreased by about 90% Fortunately, humpback whales Commercial whaling is prohibited, but other whales are not fortunate whales are still facing many threats such as bycatch, poisoning, climate change, krill reduction, noise pollution, etc. I am currently working on marine biology and marine protection, and I would like to help restore the population of whales directly.
