Question: The minke whale is not endangered and the International Whaling Commission (IWC) estimates there are 1 million minke whales worldwide. Please tell me if you would support or oppose the harvest of minke whales if you knew that 
  • harvested minke whales would be used for food;
  • the harvest of minke whales is an  aspect of the culture for some nations and for some groups of people;
  • and the harvest of minke whales would be regulated by the IWC which would set a worldwide limit on the number of whales to be harvested each year to ensure there would be no impact to overall minke whale population numbers. 
Would you support or oppose the harvest of minke whales under these conditions?
