Whale hunt Japan’s latest annual Antarctic whale hunt — which the country says is for scientific purposes — killed 333 minke whales between 8 December 2017 and 28 February 2018.
The International Whaling Commission reported the figures last month.
The captured whales included 181 females, 95% of which were pregnant.
In one area of the hunt, more than half of the animals of both sexes were juveniles.
The International Court of Justice temporarily banned Japan from whaling in the Southern Ocean in 2014 (pictured, a whale captured by a Japanese whaling vessel), after deciding its hunts were not for scientific purposes as claimed.
The nation launched a new whaling programme in 2015, called NEWREP-A.

😔 Hunting needs to be banned. Animals are like human beings. They should not be killed for any reason. People need to treat animals like their own self.
