I would get maybe 300 lbs of Tuna each time I went. Froze some and gave away the rest to friends.
A whale is not a fish, it's a mammal, it breathes air, next people will be telling how great Dolphin is? The Dolphins would play on the wake of the sub when it was on the surface and is the mascot of the submarine Navy, all submarine Navies

So let me guess every one of you are a Vegetarian? That would explain the statements not your absolute hypocrisy. LOL @ the submarine guy ... Cows,pigs,chickens and sheep are all mammals. Those particular whales number in the 10's of thousands and while I get sick watching it , its not my place to judge what others eat or survive on.
Watch FOOD INC. and see how the beef, chicken and sea food is raised and slaughtered in the US and Canada and you will be even more disgusted.

these people have been eating whales as one of their primary sources of food for 1200 years. you think they shouldnt do it just because you wanna get emotional over why its right to kill one animal and not another? i dont think so.
