Mammals represent to save mammals. And whales are too large to mount their head on a wall. And honestly, I think that is the main reason why they aren't hunted for sport. Right? They aren't hunted for sport... that is correct, right? Dolphins also get a pass, except in Asia.

Meanwhile, rhinos, hippos, elephants are hunted despite high intelligence. I think a lot of people would be happy to stop hunting of large land mammals, but people with guns have so much money. Whales also don't present a menace to local ecology like say an elephant does. So money wins in the end, and whales get lucky because you can't really pose with one in a murder pride photo.
 
Yeah there wasn't any dust up about those tiny snail darters...

Marketing. Save the flying lemur or save the Republican doesn’t garner as much attention. That’s why support for breast cancer became so popular. You have to pick something beautiful and majestic to draw attention to the cause first.

Yup. That is why whale activists started first with the Large Breasted Blue Whale. ;)
