> There is a declining ecological space for these whales (due to krill fishing).

Is there any culture using krill for human food?

As far as I'm concerned, fishing should be completely banned in international waters -- this would also help developing nations that currently greatly suffer from commercial fishing emptying the seas close to their exclusivity zones.




As far as I'm aware it is mainly used for feeding fish in fish farms. So farmed Salmon etc all rely on krill fishing.
