There are no Australian whaling vessels if regarding Australian companies that catch whales in Australian waters. Many lobby groups, environmentalists and others with similar concerns have actually been known to be ardent in their attempts to stop whaling through protests, legal action, lobbying and even physical action. There have also been many protests by such people whaling sometimes bordering on violent vigilante acts. While a recent incident has went so far as involving Japanese ships whaling in Australian waters close to Antarctica sparking a reaction from the Australian government to press charges upon Japan at the International Court of Justice. Thus it is quite impossible that there ever would be any Australian whaling vessels.

What is a whaling fleet vessel?

A whaling fleet vessel is a ship specifically designed for hunting and processing whales. These vessels are equipped with specialized machinery for capturing, killing, and processing whales at sea, often featuring facilities for storing the whale meat and blubber. Historically, whaling fleets operated extensively in the 18th and 19th centuries, but many countries have since banned commercial whaling due to conservation efforts and the decline of whale populations. Today, some vessels still operate under scientific or legal loopholes, leading to ongoing debates about whaling practices and marine conservation.
