Closed petition Apply diplomatic pressure to both Norway and Japan to cease killing Whales.

Closed on

Norway kills around 500 Minke Whales annually and Japan continues to defy International agreements citing scientific research as an excuse to hunt and kill whales. The most efficient killing methods leave about 20% of whales alive after the first strike, allowing untold agony and lingering death.
