The traditional way of hunting the walrus not to lose it under the ice or bottom of the water it demands of a man to keep it with the hunting line. Even though we have now the rifles we still keep the traditional hunting with the respect for the animal.

  • Seal hunting for the tribes, good. Seal hunting for profit, bad.

  • You are so right!

  • Cool, reminds me of what my great grandparents and their son my grandpa use to go through, glad its still alive and the NATIVE ways of hunting is still alive and practiced up North in our Native Brothers backyard, QUYANA

  • Sure, nice to hear. I hope to hunt with you one day the way as our ancestors did.

  • Absolutly fantastic. The old ways are not gone.

  • The hunting style is still there, we kept it as our fathers and mothers wanted us to do even though the Europeans want us to stop the traditional way of hunting as they want us to be like them. But we need animals to be free and we have to find them in many different conditions, that's how we'll appreciate the animals.

  • Thanks for these two informative videos. We live the soft life compared to these people, yet I wonder if we are as happy as they? I enjoyed the clever mix of traditional and modern music, too. Peter, NZ.

  • Despite what they eat.....They sure worked it off daily in their daily activity......Staying active all the time.....Excellent video post......

  • Can you eat this huge fish in one day?

  • whoever added this music deserves to be wacked in the face

  • @tanqik72

    Indeed, though Native is a relative term - My ancestors hunted Whale, Walrus & Seal & still should be able to - alas my ancestors are Nordic ;-]

    I myself, dream of such a hunt & consider them (the Inuits) lucky to live in such a manner.

  • Bad footage..lol.. good musik..hahaha

  • Hope they'll keep the traditions and culture alive for ever. Never know, someday all the technologies can be gone in a second.

  • @NameTaken1000 yes the inuit has been doing this for decades, alaska is the place where you can learn how to survive and gain skills on how to hunt for meat, it is hard but worth it, you also have to study the weather so youl know what to hunt for

  • beautiful footage.... bad musical score. lol... great video though.

  • thanks for a little peek into your culture,hunting being a great part of that,,you are admired!
