Countries with a history of whaling include Norway, Japan, and Iceland, which have maintained commercial whaling practices. Additionally, the United States, particularly in Alaska, and countries like Canada and Russia have engaged in whaling, often for subsistence purposes.

Today, many nations have shifted towards conservation efforts, leading to a decline in commercial whaling.
