And whilst I am scratching my tired brain, I seem to recall that there are various layers of yummy or at least nutritious fat in the whale or seal blubbers, that are prized by various native peoples.  Some contain more nutrients than others.  But never eat the polar bear liver--it can kill you.  (Peter Freuchen's Book of the Eskimos) One Arctic explorer tried dining off of whale meat and blubber only, to see what would happen, and he felt fine  the whole time, but if he didn't, he would eat more fat.  My husband is the polar expert, so he would know who that was.  Linda
