Ambergris treasure found in dead Texel whale | Dear Kitty. Some blog

Ambergris treasure found in dead Texel whale | Dear Kitty. Some blog: "The carcass of the sperm whale which beached in December on a sandbank near Texel has proved to be a valuable treasure-house. During the dissection of the animal by employees of Ecomare an exceptional amount of ambergris was found in its rectum. These smelly lumps are very rare and of great value to the perfume industry."
