Whale Hunting Should Be Banned
For a few reasons whaling is good for eg. Economy for countries but is it right to kill such a great animal?

Yes, stop killing whales. It is a horrible thing to do. How would the whalers feel if they died of air loss if the were a whale or being stabbed so they bleed to death. I'm sure they would hate it.

There is not longer any reason to hunt whales, and they are getting closer to extinction everyday, so we should stop.

It's cruel, inhumane, and pointless.

Unless those here on this board eat whale meat why would you want to see something else become nothing but a picture in a book because there are any. They are awesome why keep killing things you don't eat..or not being a part of prevention

Imagine a situation where a whale is chasing you and you are gasping for breath. It sounds like the worst nightmarish situation that any human being can think about. But this is the bitter truth that we have become selfish enough to kill innocent whales for our own interest. The whales are being killed since ages for the ‘Whale oil’, which has great commercial value in the market.

It is a proven fact that whales are intelligent species who can very well feel the pain of being injured. Generally the whalers use spears with grenade-tips to kill them, which initially pierce their body and then gradually deepen the wound. Moreover a whale is never killed at the first hit, which makes their death more painful. According to the animal activists the gruesome act of hunting whales should be banned on the ground of extreme cruelty.

Yes, it already has been..... In Oklahoma. Which makes no sense, whatsoever.

These whales were here before us and we need to respect that and let them live their lives without humans destroying them.

I agree with Cephus, whales are just another animal. The only way we can place them above any other animal that we kill for food is by subjective opinions, and laws should not be based solely on personal preferences.

Stop anthropomorphizing whales. While we certainly need to have strict limits on how whales are hunted, there's nothing wrong about hunting them for their meat than there is to kill cows for your hamburger.
