This movie is a spiritual journey!, I had a similar experience living with the natives in Peru. the greatest thrill in life is to let live, and leave nature alone, along with its people, this earth is sacred we must respect all life! Great post!
@spetsnaz5 from your liberal animal rights extremist professor. modern management practices increase the number of trophy animals. blame that one on state governments not hunters. they want their state to grow the biggest trophy animals so they sell more expensive permits. the proceeds from which go mostly back in to wildlife management. hunters are only helping populations. they want to see nature at it's finest like everyone else. that's why they are out there.
@longfootbuddy dead wrong! the fittest are the ones that hunters don't get. they have good escape cover from predators and are using their senses to know when to stay in the cover where they will not be found. many animals are just a little too sharp for most hunters.
@mocatmancb your right, those animals that can spot the thousands of hunters in camo from hundreds of yards away, who are up wind and covered in scent and sitting around lures and feeding grounds, shouldnt have any troubles..
@mocatmancb Personally I do not hunt......,I find NO pleasure in the killing of an animal. Were I starving and could get a dear to eat I would rejoice. I am writing to you to say this: dont try to discuss something so controversial as hunting with others when it is clear you need some more education on the NATURE subject.
I appreciate your reverance for nature but get an education.
@romnsch13 i think your comment clearly states who needs an education, learn how to spell deer correctly and someone might listen to you. by the way, i do not take pleasure in killing animals, either. i do take pleasure in knowing that i have the ability to do so. that is how life works, you kill something and eat it. whether it be a domestic animal, a wild animal, or a plant, one life form dies to sustain the life of another. that is the most basic principle of NATURE.
Ootek always had a spotlessly clean Eskimo outfit he wore in this film. In scene after scene he was spotless. I always wondered how you would clean an outfit like that? Great movie though!

hunters kill all the best animals, so only the weak are left...causing the survival of the fittest to be the weakest

@longfootbuddy That is actually a problem. Trophy hunting causes the size and strength of populations to diminish. Learned that in ecology class.

There's a switch: the natives kill and sell the wolves and the white-man outsider would disagree. Sometimes I miss the 80s.
