Detailed explanation-1: -The global community came together to enact a ban on whaling. However, Japan and Norway have not agreed to stop whaling. Which of the following is the most likely consequence of their decision? The whale populations are not rebounding as quickly as they might if all of the countries agreed not to hunt whales.
Detailed explanation-2: -Whaling Is Needless Cruelty Whales are more easily harmed by hunting than any other animal because many whale species live eighty or more years and reproduce late in their life cycle. The blue whale once had a healthy population of 300, 000 individuals. Today, less than 3 percent of that number remains.
Detailed explanation-3: -The industry plummeted. By the early 1970s, the United States had listed eight whales as endangered species. The U.S. officially outlawed whaling in 1971.
Detailed explanation-4: -Instead, the number of whales killed during the whaling season in Norway has been increasing steadily over the past five years, from 429 in 2019 to 503 in 2020, and 575 whales in 2021, making Norway the country which has the most whales killed.
