Japan’s Fisheries Agency has proposed expanding commercial whaling along the country’s coast to fin whales, a larger species than the three currently permitted.

日本水產廳提議將商業捕鯨範圍擴大至該國沿岸，涵蓋長鬚鯨等較大型鯨魚品種。長鬚鯨的體型比目前允許捕撈的3種鯨魚更大。

The proposal comes five years after Japan resumed commercial whaling within its exclusive economic zone after withdrawing from the International Whaling Commission in 2019. It ended 30 years of what Japan called “research whaling” that had been criticized by conservationists as a cover for commercial hunts banned by the commission in 1988.
