I doubt that if the species they eat were proved to be out of danger that many people would change their mind though. If tuna is the chicken of the sea then Whale must be the cow of the sea. Considering that it was the west that nearly hunted whales to extinction I find it extremely hypocritical for them to put up a fuss. It's also rich that the west assumes that Japan would hunt them to extinction, wouldn't make much sense if they want to continue eating it.
If you don't like whale don't eat it, pretty simple.

Want to eat whale??? fine...just don't come down into Australian protected Antarctic waters and mess with the livelihoods of Australian whale watchers. You fucked up your part of the world, don't come down here and fuck up our part of the world.
