Unfortunately people are breaking the law when they go whaling (except for native americans, who are allowed to do it so they can eat, they don't waste a thing on it) they are hunted for a oil called spermacetii.

They cunningly hunt and kill baby whales, such as grey whales, to feed their massive pods (or families). They can spend six hours relentlessly and skillfully hunting a whale, just to eat it's tongue! The rest of the dead whale sinks to the ocean floor and gets eaten by creatures like hagfish and 7 metre long sleeper sharks.
