....we spotted a dead walrus floating in the distance, seabirds landing on it and pecking away at the carcass. We got a choker around it and lifted it up alongside the boat with a crane. We worked for an hour or more cutting it's head off to salvage the tusks. The stink that came off that dead animal was absolutely amazing. We had to take turns at it as you could not stand being close to it for very long. The boat stunk for days afterward, even with the head inside three heavy garbage bags, buried in rock salt in a plastic trash can with the lid sealed up with duct tape. Threw away the rubber gloves and a wood handled knife that could not be cleaned so it it did not still stink.

Please don't tell me about endangered species or wildlife protection. This was all done with documentation and clearance from the Alaskan Department of Wildlife.
