    Passage II
    Whales present such a picture of massiveness and power that you would never imagine they could be threatened by something as puny as a human. But once a year, the International Whaling Commission (IWC) meets to decide whether they can be hunted again. Since, the commercial whaling moratorium came into effect in 1986, what started out looking like at least a long pause in whaling soon became a period of permanent tension between those who believe that humans have an inherent right to kill whales and those who believe that whales have an inherent right to live.
