Nations fail to limit whaling, Japan still hunts

By ASSOCIATED PRESS

The breakdown put diplomatic efforts on ice for at least a year, raised the possibility that South Korea might join the whaling nations and raised questions about the global drive to prevent the extinction of the most endangered whale species.
