A whaling fleet vessel is a ship specifically designed for hunting and processing whales. These vessels are equipped with specialized machinery for capturing, killing, and processing whales at sea, often featuring facilities for storing the whale meat and blubber. Historically, whaling fleets operated extensively in the 18th and 19th centuries, but many countries have since banned commercial whaling due to conservation efforts and the decline of whale populations. Today, some vessels still operate under scientific or legal loopholes, leading to ongoing debates about whaling practices and marine conservation.
