We have laws governing the humane killing of cows. The whales are not privy to the same, and often suffer a great deal and take a long time to die.

So if the whales died an instant painless death you would be okay with it? Since you implied that just seeing whales somehow was a trans formative event, I doubt it.

There is no reason to kill whales. I do love wildlife and spending time out in the wild, watching whales as well.

Seeing all of nature can be a transformative event, not just whales.
