Whale tail in Iceland

Whale hunting is an extremely painful and cruel way to kill animals. Animals who haven’t even done anything wrong – they’re simply living their lives, swimming in their waters, when suddenly humans attack them with harpoons, leaving them to bleed out and suffer.

Yet the government of Iceland has just approved a new license for whale hunting that will allow a company called Hvalur to slaughter 128 fin whales. Fin whales are already an endangered species.

What in the world is the Icelandic government doing? Approving the slaughter of this species that is already in danger of extinction is irresponsible and unconscionable!

Please sign this petition to demand the Icelandic government reverse its reckless decision now!
