capelin?

so, we are here in newfoundland! we haven't gotten any moose or rabbit yet, but that is coming. today is really cold and rainy here and we were having a chat with someone saying that it is "capelin weather" and we had a brain wave! can we feed capelin to iorek? it is going to "roll" soon, which literally means the fish roll onto the beach and we can go down with a bucket and pick up as much as we want! it is a small cold water fish and it is FREE! woohoo! do you think that this will be ok as a fish source for now? we still have not found a fish source and if we can get a couple of pounds of capelin it will last us until we are able to find a source of fish for iorek. thanks
