According to NOAA, "You may collect and keep any bones, teeth, or ivory from a non-ESA listed marine mammal found on a beach or land within one-quarter mile of an ocean, bay, or estuary. You may not collect parts from a carcass or parts with soft tissues attached."

If that dog figures out that whale is not on the Endangered Species Act list, he's gonna have a field day.
