Prow of a decommissioned whaling boat, with the metal harpoon on the deck and the harpoon cannon removed so only its fittings remain. Overfishing of whales in the mid-20th century depleted their numbers to such an extent that whaling was banned for most reasons. Strict quotas now operate that permit the native Inuit whaling-based culture to harvest a sustainable number of whales, but many ships have been repurposed. Filmed in Disko Bay, Greenland, in 2012.
