The fin whale is considered an endangered species primarily due to historical whaling practices that drastically reduced its population. Although commercial whaling has largely ceased, ongoing threats such as ship strikes, entanglement in fishing gear, and habitat degradation continue to pose risks. Additionally, climate change impacts, such as shifting prey availability and ocean acidification, further threaten their survival. Conservation efforts are essential to protect this majestic species and help its populations recover.
