Guest guest Posted December 3, 2008 Report Share Posted December 3, 2008 I've heard it said that sperm whales used to be killed for the ambergris. I find that assertion suspicious because people have known that ambergris needs to cure, at sea for many years, as long as they've been using the stuff in perfume, which obviously is a long time. That whales were hunted is undeniable; if it was ever for " fresh " ambergris, which I imagine is useless, is to me unproven. Anyone have any references, like hard proof?
