whale hunting
The world’s oceans could soon be opened up to a bloody and cruel slaughter that should have been consigned to history. A slaughter that saw many whale species brought to the brink of extinction last century. Both commercial whaling and international trade in whale products are currently banned. However a growing number of governments are pushing hard for these restrictions to be lifted.
I think it should be banned as it is cruel and teh whales might all be wiped out.
Some countries want it to be allowed because it is their only way of earning money.

Whale hunting is inhuman and pure evil! It is vile the way they are slatured and killed for their meat! They are innocent creatures and they don't deserve the rude, obnogouis treatment!

Yes I think whale hunting should be completely banned because its bad for the economy and tourism would be a better way to make the most of these beautiful creatures.

Im sorry, but if whaling is to be banned, why not the slaughter of cows, pigs and other livestock? They are all animals and all should have the same rights. Ok, if the whales become endangered, then step in, but why breed pigs for slaughter and no whales. I have never tasted whale or any of its products, but from what i have read and researched, all of the whale is used which is more than i can say for other animals.

i think that their should be an inbetween as they are very useful but they are endangerd and are going extinct, also whale hunting in some cases is the only way of income for some countries. so it should be banned in places of the world but not all.

i think whaleing should only be banned in cetain areas peoples lives depentd on the odd whale and when are whales "innocent lives" that is hippy talk and killing them isnt putting them through hell its just the food chain its like teachin a lion to be a vegetarian, it would just die and there are alot more things more "hellish" than dieing, dieing is only natural.And the natural world is not nice.

I think humans take advantage of the fact that we have ways of defeating animals and obviously as they cannot communicate with us it just makes it easier.

I think people think its right to treat animals with low respect because they dont have two arms and two legs and the features that humans have. I think that the way people treat whales is totaly unbaliveable and discracefull i would rather the people that eat whale meat to die
