    Let's cool down a little. Yes I firmly agree that the self righteousness in the Australian position is highly inappropriate, particularly when Byron Bay, Moreton Is, Hervey Bay and many other Aussie towns were founded as part of the West's decimation of the world's whale population that continued up until the 80's. However comparison with the harvesting of kangaroos doesn't stick where Australia often has 'roos in plague proportions due to the wide availability of water bores post European settlement/invasion and we do not proceed beyond our own borders. I do sympathize as tourists hear that we sometimes eat our national symbol, but their consumption does in theory displace hoofed mammal grazing which has destroyed so much of Australia's land and rivers ecology. oAlmost all nations sanction the harvesting of various mammals and other intelligent creatures for consumption, with religious and other beliefs prohibiting the harvesting of certain animals (bovine species for Hindus for example) May I suggest we might all agree the issues in the case of any animal are 1) cruelty 2) whether they are a threatened species and how their numbers affect the food chain, and 3) where they are harvested - domestically or in areas for all nations to share.
