Anti whaling forces win ban lower quotas
The United States and anti whaling allies secured a ban on killer whale slaughter in the Antarctic and pushed sperm whale quotas down in the North Pacific at the International Whaling Commission session in Brighton. The panel set 1981 quotas at 13,000 total, down from 15,883 in 1980 and 19,752 in 1979, while banning cold harpoons and mandating explosive grenades for future hunts. The U S predicted further cuts could end commercial whaling within three to five years. Japan opposed, pledging ship layups as a result. The commission also trimmed bowhead quotas for Alaskan Eskimos and tightened methods to reduce animal suffering.
