Where did whale hunting take place?
In 1864, the Norwegian Svend Foyn equipped a steamboat with harpoons specifically designed for catching large whales. Although initially cumbersome and with a low success rate, Foyn perfected the harpoon gun, and soon several whaling stations were established on the coast of finnmark in northern Norway. Because of disputes with the local fishermen, the last whaling station in Finnmark was closed down in 1904.
Why is Sven Foyn not a friend to the blue whales?
He increased the efficiency and brought whaling into a modern age when he introduced the modern exploding harpoon gun, making it possible to hunt the largest baleen whales.
Who invented the harpoon cannon?
Sven (or Svend) Foyn (1809-1894) was a whaler born in Tønsberg in southeast Norway. In 1856, he invented the bow-mounted harpoon cannon, with an explosive head. This invention helped resuscitate the declining whaling industry. Some believe it began the era of modern whaling. Later "improvements" to Foyn's harpoon shot compressed air into the whale, so that it would not sink before it could be dragged onto the whaling ship.
