The Japanese, among others, found a bit of a loophole that if the hunting is for "scientific research" they are permitted to kill a very low number per year. Then they turn around and sell it as food for profit, and when hunting out of view, don't report their numbers resulting in them killing a lot more than permitted for the "research" they aren't even doing. --- Ten million dollars on a losing campaign Twenty million starving and writhing in pain <cite>MabusIncarnate posted [p:894449652] in Why is it ...
