This is not true. They are considered smart animals but not as smart as humans (obviously). I think a pig is supposed to have similar levels of intelligence.
For the record I oppose whaling, but I don't think making hyperbolic statements is going to help anything.
EDIT: If anyone would like to post some information showing that whales are as smart as humans I'd love to see it.
