Description

Whaling is something that humans have engaged in for thousands of years.


For most of that time, indigenous groups conducted it on a small scale for survival purposes.


Over time, whaling became commercialized, the annual whale harvest exploded, and whaling became a cornerstone of the early industrial revolution. 


Alas, it couldn’t last forever.


Learn more about whaling, its rise, and its fall, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
