Currently, whaling in Japan is being condemned around the world, with people asking for a total ban on the practice. However, Japan should be allowed to carry on its culture, as long as there are increased regulations and international oversight.

While other Western livestock are being slaughtered (Source: http://goo.gl/oNVbg7), these countries are attempting to stop a culling of an animal that is typically seen as "adorable". This is tantamount to cultural whitewash. However, on the overhand, we can't allow these practices to continue. Thus, the National Diet should implement reforms.

We, the undersigned, call on the Japanese National Diet to implement reforms that would ban inhumane culling of dolphins and whales while permitting international investigators to oversee the implementation of such reforms.
