Because many animals, including whales, can sense when there's about to be an earthquake, so the whales all left Japanese waters.
Their spears were blunt
Hope you're not caught by Australian anti-whaling boat if you're a Japanese sailor illegally hunting whales.
Japan has slaughtered over 6,000 whales since commercial whaling was banned in 1986. The meat and other products obtained from this 'research' is sold as before.
Since whales are killed in whaling, I'd Think it'd be pretty obvious that whales are affected by whaling.
To some Japanese people, it is a sport to hunt whales. It is illegal though: because, whales are endangered. (Partly because of whaleing).
It is banned worldwide, however the Japanese go Whaling and kill millions of whales a year and GreenPeace try to stop it!
Not all whaling is Japanese whaling. They get the most fame because they kill many whale (almost 1000 in the southern ocean every year, along with hundreds off their coast). Norway, Iceland, and some aboriginal tribes also kill whales, but not as many as Japan.
Primarily, the ban on commercial whaling. They've cut back on 'scientific' culling of whales for a few reasons... pressure from various international organizations, for one, and also a lack of sustainability, as the Japanese whaling fleet always operated at a substantial loss.
well the overse answer is they will be extinct after a while and there will be a lot of blood in the ocean
to stop the Japanese whaling fleet illegaly killing whales for what they call research.
Not many... whales know how to stay clear of boats. In fact, they are quite difficult to hit when you are trying. This issue is not a reason why whales are endangered. The more serious issue is whaling.
If you mean whales, they die painfully.
