Should We Save The Whale?

Question

Should we save the whale and why? How much has been spent on saving them? Has progress being made? Only factual answers please.

Answer 1

Yes! Absolutely! Here are just a few reasons:

Whales are intelligent social mammals that cooperate, communicate through sound, use tools and have similar brain structures to our own.

Considering that whales used to live on land millions of years ago, they offer us an insight into evolution.

Whale watching is a growth industry that needs the friendly whales intact.

Whale meat is often unsafe with pollutants such as PCBs, mercury, and dioxins.

Banning whaling costs very little because not many cultures eat whales or use whale products anymore. Most cultures that have banned whaling have dones so becasue it is considered primitive.

Progress had been made until recently when Japan, Canada, Iceland, and Norway restarted their whaling industries. I expect that progress will be erased in the near future.

Answer 2

yes
