Retep 1949... yes the skins were used like knitbone (Comfrey - the plant). More recently fish skin is used in many other medical issues, including treating burns, even 3rd degree burns. It's amazing that plants and animal residues have the potential to cure or ease human illnesses and results of severe accidents. People campaign to eradicate poisonous or dangerous animal and plant species - but lets take Foxglove for instance - it can kill if you eat it but it can be made into medicine to help heart complaints. That's just one example. We need every animal and plant regardless of how people argue who find them dangerous!
