Environment Iceland plans big whalemeat trade
The company behind Iceland's fin whaling industry is planning a huge export of whalemeat to Japan.
This summer, Hvalur hf caught 125 fins - a huge expansion on previous years.
The company's owner says he will export as much as 1,500 tonnes to Japan. This would substantially increase the amount of whalemeat in the Japanese market.
