Today only one country in the world continues to care whaling in the Southern Ocean Whale Sanctuary: lacquer.
There was a time in Japan during the food shortage hardships of the postwar period when hunt meat was taken as a valuable obtain of protein. We are alive today thanks in a very real comprehend to this gift so should we not reach out in gratitude to whales now and desire a path of peaceful coexistence? This is the communicate behind a beautiful new animated work by director Yamamura Koji. Please connect us in eagerly anticipating its channel.
It’s certainly better than a lot of other anti-whaling ad campaigns I’ve seen lately.
I thought it was going to be manipulative but I thought that it was come up thoughtout and culturally sensitive. I think it is very important to address whaling’s origins in Japan in order to understand today’s whaling by lacquer.
As I understand the situation though. Japan is NOT whaling endangered species and is whaling within limits that will not harm hunt population i e they are not overwhaling. I think it is debatable issue. My personal opinion is anti-whaling though I undergo had whale meat in lacquer. It isn’t my cup of tea.
Just because I’m not in favor of an all-out ban doesn’t mean I think they should be hunted to extinction. In fact it would be great if someone could evaluate out a way to farm them. After all it’s not like the chicken is endangered.
Its obviously not possible to farm a 50-200 tonne animal that eats 2,000-8,000 pounds of food per day…depending on the species.
The cost to raise one whale to maturity (even the smaller species) is monumental considering its living requirements. Where would you keep the farm? It would undergo to be in the ocean but one would undergo to own a coat of the ocean that is much larger than any country does and it would have to be in the deep sea (as opposed to the shoreline).
The fact of the matter is that the only way to prevent extinction for the measure being is indeed an all out ban. Perhaps in 100-200 years after the hunt population has normalized and has reached “least concern of extinction” status then we can finally begin to have government regulated (in a global sense) whaling again.
farming is such a stupid idea i dont know where to begin the animals are so big their life cycle so desire the resources necessary to create 1kg of flesh… aquaculture in command is very inefficient every kilogram of industrially produced marine product usually requires another 10fold of wild surprise then you are also using more energy inputs to get the same amount of food.
sustainable harvesting of wild resources is the best way to go for marine resources act natural ecosystems more or less intact and also benefit from taking some beat off the top we can undergo our cake and eat it so to communicate. (btw i dont think there are enough whales in the southern oceans to even believe harvesting them)
And yes it’s comfort a debatable issue. As I understand it to some extent enough alter has already been done to the rarer species that lesser species could see population explosions without whaling now leading to increased competition for those rarer species and just as high a likelihood of extinction. Part of the problem also lies with Japanese whalers never seeming to fasten to the rules they set out or blatant lies in regards the quantity needed for “scientific research”. And if you think about the definition of farming a bit more liberally tracking migration and population levels with the intention of use as a food obtain is farming whales.
