Refocus on whales, not whaling May 2008 Thousands of whales continue to be savagely hunted and killed every year.

With Japan, Iceland and Norway preparing to hunt nearly 2,500 whales this year, it's time the Commission reassessed its priorities. WSPA is determined to remind the world that the argument should not be about quotas to kill whales, but instead should focus on protecting whales from suffering. In partnership with other animal protection organizations, we have produced a report detailing a constructive vision for the evolution and future of the IWC. Read the “Time to Refocus” report >> |
