Around 300 whales are taken by the Japanese for 'scientific reasons'.
Because many animals, including whales, can sense when there's about to be an earthquake, so the whales all left Japanese waters.
An exact number for the population of whales is unknown so the percentage hunted by the Japanese cannot be calculated.
100 whales a year
去年 /kyo nen/ means 'last year' in Japanese.
Japan has slaughtered over 6,000 whales since commercial whaling was banned in 1986. The meat and other products obtained from this 'research' is sold as before.
It is banned worldwide, however the Japanese go Whaling and kill millions of whales a year and GreenPeace try to stop it!
The last year of World War ll with Japanese was 1945. At the end of 1945, the last internment camp was closed and this also saw Japanese people get a formal apology from Canada.
1 a year
It depends...are people killing them? No. Could natural causes such as beached whales, fish nets, anchors, and being hit by boats? Yes. In addition, the Japanese kill the whales too.ANSWER:Yes. The Japanese continue to kill whales under the pretense of "research." Then they butcher them and sell the whale meat in Japan.
30,000,000,000 blue whales
None. The whales kill the balloons
more or less than 20 whales die a year due to being beached.
