I’ll tag them all:</p> <p><a href="http://scientificillustration.tumblr.com/tagged/Dugong"></a><a href="http://scientificillustration.tumblr.com/tagged/Dugong"><a href="http://scientificillustration.tumblr.com/tagged/Dugong">http://scientificillustration.tumblr.com/tagged/Dugong</a></a></p> <p>If you ever wondered what dugong tasted like here’s a description:</p> <p>“The meat is excellent; roasted, I could not have distinguished it from good, but rather tough beefsteak. It had none of the peculiar flavour of whale-meat. Moreover, it has the same quality as that assigned, both by the old voyagers and by modern observers, to the flesh of the American Manatees — it keeps good for a considerable time, for at least three days in hot weather, during which mutton goes bad in twenty-four hours. The blubber is not made into oil at Kilakarai.”</p> <p><a href="http://www.archive.org/stream/journalproceedin11905asia#page/237/mode/1up">ANNANDALE, N. 1905.
