Does anyone have any good links for whale eating statistics?

basically im looking for a table of results from surveys/polls carried out in Japan or Norway which show the number of people who have eaten whale meat over the years.





i.e. 1933- 100 tonnes consumed


1955- 72 tonnes consumed etc etc etc

Does anyone have any good links for whale eating statistics?
from wikipidea





"The pilot whale as a source of food...





The pilot whale meat and blubber is stored, prepared and eaten in the Faroese households. This also means that meat is not available at supermarkets. Although the Faroe Island's main export is fish, this does not include pilot whale meat or blubber. An annual catch of 956 pilot whales[11] (1990–1999) is roughly equivalent to 500 tonnes of meat and blubber, some 30% of all meat produced locally in the Faroe Islands."

I feel bad for evening letting this out........





It's a delicacy that is much more flavorful than Whale.





Trader Joe's deals in it.......But you have to ask for it.
