Ambergris was whaling’s most valuable prize. A waxy substance from a sperm whale’s intestines, it was occasionally found
in whales’ stomachs but more commonly floating on the sea or washed up on shore. Some pieces weighed several hundred
pounds. Perfume makers used it to prolong scents.
Why whales produce ambergris remains unknown. It may coat indigestible fragments, such as pieces of squid beaks, to
protect a whale’s intestines. Or it may be the whale’s equivalent of human gallstones.
Ambergris was used to make perfume.
