People.

It used to be hunting. Now we're killing the whale's food (krill) with a combination of overfishing and warming the planet.

People catch about 200,000 tons of krill per year.

As if catching all the krill isn't bad enough, climate change is melting sea ice, which is where the krill's food lives. So, a warming ocean kills off marine algae, which means that krill numbers drop, which means that blue whale numbers drop.

Why should you not kill blue whales?

Blue whales are so big that killing them "humanely" - meaning fast and painlessly - is difficult. Blue whales breed slowly, meaning that any hunting can easily reduce the population. Blue whales are probably quite intelligent as animals go, and may form long-lasting relationships with others of their species. Their upset when family members die may be comparable to ours. Blue whales are no longer actually needed for human consumption. Those items we used to get from whales can now be functionally replaced with materials from other sources.
