Hunting and killing methods have been improved to ensure as little harm to the whales as possible.

Apart from the ... hunting and the killing.

Why even hunt whales in the first place? Sure, it's one big food source when you snag one, but people who have tried whale say it's bland and uninteresting. It's just a bunch of fat. And it takes a lot of effort to kill it, haul it, parse it out, etc.

Fish farms give you much more good quality meat without all of the species endangerment.

It's definitely not just fatty and bland. I've had it on Svalbard, where there's no farming or husbandry going on because it's too far up north.

Whale tastes a lot like beef, so yeah, might as well have that instead.
