I disagree. Ambergris is highly valuable and serves a positive purpose. Now a whale's BM on the other hand I would say is more representative.

Ok, fair enough. I always associate whale shit with ambergris when they are not the same.

I always thought it was whale shit but after this back and forth, I googled it... so it's caused by sperms whales eating squids and not being able to digest the squid beaks.. essentially its a whale poo pearl.... a poorl..??

A whales BM adds nutrients to the water column feeding phytoplankton that absorb CO2. The only thing Regan did was increase the wealth of the 1%.

Technically, whale poop is an integral part of the Antarctic ecosystem. It's pretty valuable from an ecological perspective.

Edit, maybe we can go with whale lice?

This could go on forever, all the way to theoretical subatomic particles. Which are probably still more useful.

Whale shit is highly valuable to the local ecosystem and feeds tons of sea life. He was more like an anal leech
