The brief 2-line description of the sperm whale under its entry in the Icewind Dale: Rime of the Frostmaiden adventure (p. 309) doesn't mention where or how commonly it's found. However, the introduction to Appendix C: Creatures does call them "common beasts" (p. 268; emphasis mine):
That leaves the question of what happens to the half-digested sperm whale the kraken ate or, for that matter, it’s own intestinal flora which is genetically not kraken. For the former, this is an object (an invalid target) and the latter is either part of the kraken or more objects.
I think what creature can deal the most damage against a single target is not the core of the question. Its a side aspect we happen to take interest in. Whale is also great in the right circumstances, but as it cannot move, very situation-dependent. \$\endgroup\$ –
Mithral Barding is flexible and does not have a strength requirement or stealth disadvantage. At 1/2 the weight of “normal” Blue Whale Barding the whale would have a better chance at not drowning.

While there doesn't appear to be a simple table in Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition dnd-5e, there was one in the Dungeons & Dragons 3.5 dnd-3.5e Dungeon Master's Guide 2003, 29.

In a 5e setting, you have many options to explore, using all kinds of exotic and difficult to obtain food supplies. Whether you are cooking Cockatrice eggs in Sperm Whale fat or choose something less dangerous like hunting down that merchant who, according to the rumours from that one gnome, owns a thousand-year-old egg that would demonstrate ...
Twice this week, I have faced a situation where Polymorph was going to be cast on a creature that had swallowed a PC. As a DM, I ruled that if the polymorphed form was smaller, the swallowed PC would
The rules have no explicit guidance on falling kinematics. Mostly. Free-falling motion isn't tackled in the rules. Back to that in a moment. Feather Fall allows one to fall at 60 ft. per round (6 sec.), or at a speed of 10 fps without suffering damage. Free-fall, which is injurious, should be faster than that.
DnD 5e is a high-fantasy tabletop game with its roots deep in the wargaming scene. The bulk of its rules concern combat and adventuring. It's not a simulator of any realistic world and therefore many topics are left with little treatment.
