Coz It Shouls As It Aint Fair On The Ocean And On Them,, They Ar Being Kill For Not Great Reasons And It Is A Waste Of Their Lives!
whales are highly intelligent creatures and because their skulls are so thick, to kill one they stick grenades on harpons and shoot them at the whales head. after that the whale is still not dead but is being hauled up onto a ship while suffering unimaginable pain. plus there all endangered and are close to becoming extinct.
I Have Just Done A Course Work Piece On This And I Have Found Out That The Reason For Banning Whaling Is The Fact That In 100 Years Whales Could Be Extinct If We Carry On Like This!! :(
whaling mainly everywhere was banned in 1972-1980.
Whaling is banned by the Antarctic Treaty, south of 60 degrees S. This includes the Southern Ocean that surrounds Antarctica.
Commercial Whaling has been banned since 1986 by the International Whaling commission. However, scientific whaling is allowed to strict quotas.
Mainly over hunting by nations that have not banned whaling yet, but should.
The International Whaling Commission is the agency responsible for introducing the ban on commercial whaling. In 1982 the commission agreed the 'The 1986 Moritoriam' which effectively banned commercial whaling from 1986, although Scientific and Aboriginal subsistence whaling is still allowed under strict quotas.
Whaling itself isn't banned. However, commercial whaling was banned in 1986. Whaling is still aloud today if it is for 'scientific research'. Eventhough most countries uses it as a loop hole to kill whales for commercial purposes.
Yes it really should be because it is making whales extinct and this cute chubby mammals are gentle and harmless.YES IT SHOULD BE BANNED
While whaling was banned by the International Whaling Commission in 1986, it is legal to kill whales for scientific purposes in some countries, such as Japan.
Not every country recognizes the ban.
Most of the civilized word have banned whaling and they find it very difficult to understand how those countries that continue to whale justify what they do.
It is banned worldwide, however the Japanese go Whaling and kill millions of whales a year and GreenPeace try to stop it!
The History of Whaling is one idea.
