Several large, greasy and smelly lumps of material weighing about 15 kilograms in total washed up at Petit Port on Guernsey's south coast on the 4th November 2019.
The material was not identified but it was very greasy, and had a particularly smell. It left a greasy residue on gloves when picked up, and would break apart easily if not handled carefully.

Sealord photography's biodiversity images began with a focus on international commercial seafood species and the marine life of the Bailiwick of Guernsey, Great Britain.
Sealord photography has a growing collection of digital images covering climate change, the environment and sustainability issues.
Sealord photography also covers the Guernsey community and particularly the fund raising activities of Guernsey charities as part of the island's social sustainability.
The fish, shellfish and marine life images would not be possible if it were not for the generosity of commercial and recreational fishermen in Guernsey, and seafood suppliers at various trade shows in the USA, and wholesalers at Fulton Fish Market in New York City.
Many marine biologists have helped identify or confirm the identity of marine species photographed. These people have been mentioned when possible.
