Perhaps parts of Canada and the US state Alaska as well?
Seal meat is eaten there legally, though the right to access it is restricted. It looks good though, but I closest thing I've seen to seal meat/blubber is whale blubber that my friend and her tribe ate.
So as not to be too off-topic, I actually had a dream that remotely involved the Downs a few days ago. I can't remember much except that I was on a bus, then a plane, then for some odd reason at an airport in Helsinki. One of my friends from home was with me for the flight for some odd reason, then she immediately turned around and left me at the airport because she had to go to Sweden to visit relatives or something. So, then I was stranded, but when I tried to buy another ticket the airport security came up and said they couldn't allow me to return home. I tried asking why, and everytime they would glance off into space and pretend I wasn't there.
I decided that since they weren't any help I'd just walk around the airport and see if I could find any. I came across
Nogrod, who was oddly acting as if he expected me there and kept talking about selling me an area of land with a small 'house' on it, and a bunch of other real estate features. I told him that was nice and all, but I'd really like to find out why I couldn't board another plane, except he became a bit flustered and said that it didn't matter and I really should focus on how much of a 'steal' the land was, and how the market was right, etc.
I finally walked off and tried to find some actual help, with Nogrod still following me and telling me more about the house, and I met up with
Aganzir and asked her about everything. Then she looked really disappointed that I wanted to board another plane, and kept telling me that I should just forget about it and stay in Finland, and especially buy the land Nogrod was trying to sell me.
I was really suspicious at this point, but for some reason I threw up my hands and asked about the house, and how many stories it was, etc. Nogrod then looked at me as if I was crazy and said, "Stories? No way, it's completely underground, y'know, like a burrow. Really, you should check it out, it's a steal! It's the only way to live."
I told him I probably was too big to live underground and that I prefered walls without worms in them, and he started to back away from me as if I was mad or something. Then of course, the dream ends and I never find out if I buy the silly place or not.
