Iceland's government will submit a bill in February to permanently ban commercial whaling, leaving only Norway and Japan as the countries still practicing it. The move follows years of protests from animal welfare campaigners and celebrities. This year, 80 fin whales were caught out of a quota of 150. Fin whales are classified as vulnerable by the IUCN.
