I just watched The Cove and realized there might be something to saving the whales. They might be self aware and as intelligent as people.
Assuming they're not, would that make it okay to hunt them to extinction?
I don't know about extinction. The argument for killing them in The Cove is they eat lots of fish that fisheries would have people buy and eat. ie People more important than whales argument. There was a bit in there about Japanese nationalism but that might be nonsense.

If fish populations are down, that is because of human activity. The solution should be to reduce human consumption of fish, not kill off other predators that are trying to eat the few fish that are left.
Isaiah 11 and Romans 8 - not eternal salvation but the healing and repairing of the world.How can whales possibly be saved if they have no souls?
The Japanese have been lying about their "scientific research" to hunt whale meat for decades.
Let's kill off anything worth calling a animal in the common man's usage and live off food grown in yeast tanks.
After all that way we can crowd even more humans on this globe.
Not that such a life seems worth living.
