Abstract

An examination of the history of the International Whaling Commission (IWC) can offer valuable insights to those managing the exploitation of other wild mammals. To understand the many issues one must look further than the IWC’s past inability to manage whaling which resulted in the declaration of an indefinite moratorium on commercial whaling.
