It was confirmed yesterday that Hvalur hf will not hunt fin whales this summer 
According to Kristján Loftsson, it’s because of the situation with the Japanese markets (no buyers) as well as the tariff race which is not improving the situation.
We celebrate these news and are happy to know that fin whales will not be hunted in Iceland for the second year in a row

#AI -Generated Rescues – Entirely #fake wildlife interactions are spreading online, diverting attention and donations away from real conservation efforts.
It’s easy to get swept up in feel-good stories, but if you truly care about #wildlife, taking a moment to verify their authenticity makes a difference!

We all love a good animal rescue story, but not all of them are real. Misleading #wildlife content is becoming more common, and it’s important to know how to spot it.
In the 12th issue of Ubuntu Magazine, we’re exploring the impact of viral wildlife content and how to tell fact from fiction.

I don’t have words to explain how anyone thinks this is okay, or how they sleep at night.
There’s no need for #WhaleMeat. The industry is losing money. Most Icelanders oppose it. But beyond all that, the #suffering is unimaginable. How can this be acceptable?
When we should be protecting life and restoring balance to our planet, this decision mocks compassion, it mocks evidence, and it mocks the future. Iceland’s new government must reverse this.
This must stop. Forever.

The planet is in emergency and governments need to start investing in solutions for the climate crisis rather than prosecuting those that try to raise the alarm.
