| Abstract |
The International Whaling Commission started granting whaling permits to Japan for scientific, but not commercial, purposes in 1986. Japan has now left the commission and discontinued its whale research. It officially resumed commercial whaling on 1 July. In the long run, however, whaling could be a shrinking business. |
