El gobierno de Islandia dijo el martes que concedió a la última empresa de caza de ballenas de aleta de esa nación una autorización para cazar y matar a 128 de esos ejemplares este año. Defensores de los animales afirman que, si bien la cifra es significativamente menor que en años anteriores, la decisión de permitir que la práctica continué es inhumana y decepcionante.
“El anuncio de hoy representa una reducción importante en la cifra y en la duración del periodo de caza”, dijo Patrick Ramage, director del grupo. Pero añadió que era “absolutamente ridículo que se permita que la caza continué en cualquier nivel”. “Es una mala noticia para Islandia y una mala noticia para la conservación marina”, dijo.
