Commercial whaling in the southern ocean exploited the hump back whalesto near extinction in the 1950's and 60s. Although there was only small scale whaling
carried out by Tongan whalers, The King of Tonga banned all Whaling in 1978.
This video offers the audience a chance to observe the Tongan situation, the positive
impact the Whale watching industry is having on the economy and society and the
future the whales bring to Tonga.
