A fully grown tuna might be pretty big, but I don't think it'd grow as big as a while (maybe vs an orca, but not a Blue or humpback).

They eat whale meat in Japan.

As I understand it, it's a dying trend there. It's likely that the Japanese government is still sticking to it's story because many of the leaders are still locked in the tradition and being obstinent. Many of the younger generation have stopped eating it.

Thanks everyone who corrected Gaobest, Dolphin as it is called here in South Florida has a fishing season all year round with a bag limit of 10 per person or 60 per vessel. You see many decals on vehicles with the dolphin logo (not the NFL Football team) on them. My first fishing trip around the turn of the century had me give up to a more experienced friend a fight with a 38 lb. bull while another friend on the other side of the stern had a fight with a 29 lb. cow.
