Killing whales is illegal.
No.
Too long!
whales are endangered
While whaling was banned by the International Whaling Commission in 1986, it is legal to kill whales for scientific purposes in some countries, such as Japan.
Whaling almost killed out the entire species so now whales are endangered so whaling is illegal and those who do it are poaching. I wouldn't suggest doing it.
It should be. In some places it is and some it isn't.
They run the illegal whaling going on in the south Pacific.
No its not. But consequences can be drastic.
Until the late 20th Century it was but due to the 1986 Commercial Whaling ban, only a few countries are still Whaling, which makes what their activities illegal despite claiming that they are doing it for cultural or scientific purposes, which is in general aloud as a loophole in the commercial whaling ban.
While whaling for certain industries is bad. i.e. ones that don't use all parts of the whale. are horrible there are parts of the world that still depend on whaling for food and supplies. Making whaling illegal would cause huge damage to their culture and their ability to maintain themselves.
because if u kill someone its illegal and you get consequences because you broke the law. and its the exact same thing for illegal downloading
