The answer is D: poaching, since it harms wildlife and destroys ecosystems.
Whales play an important role in stabilizing the aquatic food chain and reproduction of other species.
As more whales are killed the food distribution in the ocean becomes destabilized and causes changes in the food supply of many other kinds of marine life.
Whales are vital to the food chain, stabilising food flow and maintaining a healthy ocean.
As such, the rapidly decreasing whale population will have major effects on the ocean's ecosystem.
Believe it or not, whale poop also serves quite an important purpose to the ecosystem.
