From paper:

?Reminiscing about the ocean always creates the sense of vast expanse, strength and beauty; hence, it is no wonder that the whale, the greatest living creature on earth, living in the ocean, is perceived as an important animal. Due to the majestic beauty of whales, they have become icons through folklore and stories in many cultures. As whales are not subjected to national borders, they migrate freely across and through the waters of national jurisdiction; hence, different people have different views about the whales.?
