Whales were being killed because of their skin, fat which could be used for soap and materials for what ever the person needs it for.
It depends, there are two types of whales, baleen whales and toothed whales, toothed whales as you would expect have teeth for chewing or tearing into food, examples are dolphins and killer whales. But baleen whales like the humpback do not have teeth at all instead they have a plate of bone like material made up of the same material as finger nails, which they use to filter feed.
There are two small islands between Staten Island and Brooklyn - Hoffman Island and Swinburne Island. They were used as quarantine stations for immigrants in the early 1900s, and they were used by the military during WWII. Now both islands are uninhabited and off limits to the public.
Dolphins have conical-shaped teeth that are used to catch and grasp slippery prey before swallowing it whole and unchewed.
A blue whale has fins, flukes, eyes, mouth and inside the mouth there is baleen instead of teeth.
yes! i happen to know quite a bit on whales. like did you know they hear from their lower jaws? or that scientests believe that whales used to be land animals. a whales life span is 40-90 years and blue whales calfs (or babies) when born weigh about 2 tons or 4000 lbs. baleen whales (no teeth) eat plankton. toothed whales eat small fish. adult female whales are called cows. adult males are called bulls.

The product from whales that was used in cosmetics--it's not anymore--is spermaceti, which comes from sperm whales rather than blue whales.
Whales are used for makeup, lipbalm, oil, and meat.
