C) Unrestricted whaling could lead to their extinction.

The whaling is a process of hunting and killing whales so as to get the meat, oil and whalebone so that they can be sell it out commercially. The trade of whale resources was firstly in France and Spain in 16th century but they have been spread worldwide.
