The whole ocean is their toilet. That’s why it’s so salty.

Use whale blubber to power generators. Both problems solved.

Good, when there are a lot of boats out in a pod of whales.

Cows taste better, and they are way less cute.
However, having been downwind of a California grey whale spouting, Flipper has breath that will make your eyes water. The OKC Stockyards smell better.

The reason that the Japanese keep killing Whales is to provide the (unlicensed) Captain Watson of the Sea Shepards with an antagonist for the Whale Wars TV show. There is big money in TV shows.

Are you kidding??
Have you ever heard a whale song? It is worthless music with no real rhythm, tempo, lyrics, etc.
For this reason alone, their numbers should be limited!
Plus, they are big game and trophies for hunters.
Of course, we should harvest them sustainably...

“No One Eats Whales. Why Does Anyone Kill Them? “
Interesting.
So the Japanese, the Norwegians, and the Inuit and the Yupik are “no one”?
Have they got the memo yet do you think?

It’s on other threads and in the news. The follow up shots from Yahoo show what happened to the boat. It was off South Africa. The steel hull was fine but the masts/topside was trashed. The whale swam away.
