Short story : That nice juicy interior

I could smell the Kabluunak before my eyes saw him.  He is in some ice that is standing up, which surprises me, but I don't slow down.  I hear noises, not just from the mouth but also like a high wind.  He is not looking at me much but I will get him anyway.  My child will like him.  He is fearful but is not moving like the others. What is this thing?  There are gaps and I try and reach in but it is not opening up.  Once I get this strange ice open I will eat some before I drag him back.  I like Nattiq best but a change is good.  I see no black sticks, so feel little danger.  I cannot believe he is not looking at me!
