Why whales endanger?

Because whalers around the world have killed many of these animals off for their blubber and (rarely) their meat. Too much hunting has lead to a very small population. Unfortunately, the Japanese continue to send out whalers into international waters with the knowledge that America considers the whales that they are hunting to be endangered.
