Notes[]

  • Despite the description, Astrocetus Astrocetus does not actively leave behind Ambergris.
  • HLN-A describes Ambergris as "whale snot", but Ambergris is actually a waxy mucus produced in the intestines of sperm whales.
  • Ambergris can be stored in Feeding Troughs, Refrigerators and Tek Troughs (as opposed to other baby-raising Foods) expanding its decay rate.
  • Using an Ankylosaurus increases Ambergris harvesting efficiency.
