Well this is unfortunate Someone in Iceland just issued new whaling permits, while the negotiations to form a new coalition government - that is likely to be anti-whaling - continue. More fin whales to be hunted - through to 2029 🐳🌍🦑

Iceland issues permits allowing whale hunting until 2029

The permits allow for annual catches of 209 fin whales and 217 mike whales.

It was acceptable in the 80s 🐟 Orca fashions come back around as a pod in Puget Sound pick up an old habit of carrying dead salmon on their heads It's perhaps a kind of orca trail mix to snack on during long journeys, but orca experts don't know for sure 🦑🧪 www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024...
