I. C. Blubber
People first started whaling around 3000 BC. It sure was a Long long time ago!
1500 B.C. Whaling has been going on for centuries. They are mostly killed for food, their blubber, and their insides which are used for most cosmetic products.
Modern whaling in South Georgia began in 1904, the South Shetland Islands in 1906, in the South Orkneys in 1912, and in the Ross Sea in 1923.
America is against whaling. They almost put whales out of the ocean for good when they did do whaling. They wanted their blubber for oil.
Whaling isn't good at all
Commercial Whaling has been banned since 1986 by the International Whaling commission. However, scientific whaling is allowed to strict quotas.
Whaling happens in oceans, not on continents.
