AP - Environmentalists in the icy seas, risking life and limb to save whales from the harpoons of Japanese hunters - it makes for good headlines in the West and has even spawned a TV series, "Whale Wars."
I think like any species numbers must be tracked and the numbers left known so that proper quotas and even size or sex of the catch mandated to ensure the whales are there for future generations to eat as well. I f this is not being done then the need to be shut down period.
In this day or age I believe that whaling is something that should be banned except for some of the natives who are not part of the modern era. We need the whales and hunting them down is going to make them extinct.
