Stop hunting whales

There are less than 1000 whales left in this globe.
Japaneses never listen to Green peace Treaty although they consistently asked to stop it to preserve whales. Whales are getting to be extincted soon. In order to stop whales extinction, Japanese embassy and Japaneses fishermen never listen to it.
That's sad thing.
Whatever,.......hunting whales are the most primitive stuff stupid thing of all.
Hunting whales are actually more barbaric than hunting mooses.

Hmmm...

There are less than 1000 whales left in this globe.

Sperm Whale: 2,000,000
Bowhead Whale 3,000 - 5,000
Northern Right Whale 400 - 1000
Gray Whale 17,000-18,000
Humpback Whale: 10,000
Blue Whale 14,000
Fin Whale 120,000
Sei Whale 54,000
Minke Whale 505,000
Orca Not well known - may be 160,000
