Japan cuts Antarctic whale catch target by 2/3
KUSHIRO, Japan - File photo taken in September 2013 shows a minke whale landed in Kushiro, Hokkaido, in northern Japan. The Japanese government said on Nov. 18, 2014, that it will reduce the number of whales to be taken in the Antarctic Ocean to one-third of the previous target, as the country seeks to continue its "research whaling" despite a U.N. court ordering Tokyo to halt its program there.
