To some Japanese people, it is a sport to hunt whales. It is illegal though: because, whales are endangered. (Partly because of whaleing).

How was Japanese whaling stopped?

Japanese whaling faced significant international pressure and criticism over the years, particularly from environmental groups and other nations. The pivotal moment came in 2014 when the International Court of Justice ruled that Japan's whaling program in the Antarctic was not for scientific purposes, leading to Japan's temporary suspension of its whaling activities. Although Japan resumed whaling in 2019, it has shifted to a more limited scale, focusing on coastal whaling and operating outside the International Whaling Commission's regulations. Ongoing global advocacy and legal challenges continue to impact Japan's whaling practices.

What does Japan say about whaling?

Japan defends its whaling practices by asserting that they are a part of its cultural heritage and tradition. The country has conducted whaling under the guise of scientific research, despite international criticism and a ban on commercial whaling by the International Whaling Commission (IWC). Japan argues that whaling is necessary for maintaining its maritime culture and has resumed commercial whaling since 2019, citing a desire for sustainable use of marine resources. This stance has led to significant tensions with environmental groups and other nations advocating for whale conservation.
