What do you mean by commercial whaling?

Commercial whaling refers to the practice of hunting whales for profit, primarily for their meat, blubber, and other products. This activity often targets specific whale species and poses significant threats to their populations and ecosystems. Despite international regulations aimed at protecting whales, some countries continue to engage in commercial whaling under various exemptions or by objecting to moratoriums. The practice remains controversial due to ethical concerns and its impact on marine biodiversity.
