Has anyone asked the whales if they want saving.![]()
For a man is a slave to whatever has mastered him.Keep an open mind, just dont let your brains fall out.
Using the same logic - why don't we eat other people? The answer is because its plain wrong to do so because at some point there is always a need to draw a line in the sand and make a stand.
The whales are kinda the poster children of the movement to preserve our marine environments and we like having them around living free. I understand other cultures feel differently but here in nz this is a moral touchstone.

Meh, use to see it every day...
In NZ they still use captive bolt stunning on cattle, on sheep it's electrical stunning - then their throats are cut so they bleed to death.
Before that there was no stunning - grab the sheep, tip it on its side, bend its neck around a post and slice - a good 'sticker' would cut right through in one swipe leaving the head attached by a piece of skin.
Now with stunning the head is left attached to the spinal column and the neck has to be broken later on - and I can tell you there ain't no 'wrist-pump' like the one you get after breaking 3,500 necks in a day..
BTW: once the blood-flow to the brain ceases the animal has in effect fainted - the majority of the 'struggling' is nerves, hell look at what a rabbit does when you head-shoot it!
