Most days we were served seaweed which made me sick needless to say I lost unnessesary weight on that holiday
Norway hunt minke whales (+/-600 a year I think), Japan hunts minke whales (similar numbers I think) and a small number from other species for research purposes. Iceland is also whaling and take a small amount of minke whales and fin whales, for the latter which is an endangered species, about 125 in 2009. Greenland also has cultural hunting (inuits) of some species like fin whales and so does Canada and the United States for species like gray whales and bowhead whales.
