A blue whale weighs about 300, 100 lbs. So to answer the questions divide 3.1 billion by 300,000 3x10^5 is 300, 000 billion is 10^9 (is the US short scale, in some countries a billion is 10^12, so you may need to adjust) So we have 3.1x10^9/3x10^5 whales to make 3.1 billion lbs. This is about 10333.3333333333, so lets say 10334 whales.

348,169,930 ======================== Another contributor intervened: Sorry. 348,169,930 kilograms weigh only 767,582,391.1 pounds on earth ... about 23.2 percent short of 1 billion pounds. In order to make 1 billion pounds of weight, on earth, you need 453,592,909.4 kilograms of mass. In order to do it on the moon, you need 2,778,256,570 kilograms, or about 6.1 times as many as on earth.
Blue whales are so big that killing them "humanely" - meaning fast and painlessly - is difficult. Blue whales breed slowly, meaning that any hunting can easily reduce the population. Blue whales are probably quite intelligent as animals go, and may form long-lasting relationships with others of their species. Their upset when family members die may be comparable to ours. Blue whales are no longer actually needed for human consumption. Those items we used to get from whales can now be functionally replaced with materials from other sources.
