Cold waters in the North and South Atlantic Ocean and the North and South Pacific are good feeding grounds for whales. Some whales are known to migrate into warm waters to bear their calves. Whale populations decrease quickly due to heavy hunting pressure. Conservation groups have asked the International Whaling Commission to stop most whaling. However, Native America hunters, such as the Eskimos, are still allowed to hunt a limited number of whales to feed their communities . If no effective measures were taken to protect whale, these wonderful animals would disappear forever.
