For many of years animal activists have been trying to put a stop to all animal hunting, abuse, using animals for supplies. The problem with doing this is that it may effect a large amount of people who live off of these animals, in particularly the seal. The Canadian Inuit is a large group of people about 46,000 people as an estimation, that use seals as a multi source. The Canadian Inuit use the seal for a source of cash through fur sales, they used the seal for meat, and once used seal for oil lamps. In 1980 animal rights activists got their way and made it so that seal hunting was no longer legal. This affected thousands of Canadian Inuit who lived in small arctic hamlets who lived off of seal. The question is who is better off the Canadian Inuit, or the animals rights activists?

The Inuit are very spiritual people and they do not believe in a lot of the same things we do. They believe in something called Animism, all living and nonliving things have a spirit. When someone or something dies they believe that things spirit goes to the spiritual world. They only people powerful enough to talk or communicate with these spirits are religious leaders, Shamans or “Angakoks”. The way these religious leader speak with them is through dances or charms. They wear masks and clothes of an animal because they believe it helps them to communicate with them better. Not all spirits are good ones, when the weather was bad or there was an illness going around they believed it to be a displeased spirit, but the Inuit used guidelines to try to make the spirit happy. There was five rules that need to be followed in order to please the spirits, 1) women are not allowed to sew caribou skins on the inside of there igloo on sea ice in the winter. 2) Inuit can not eat sea mammal and land mammal at the same meal. 3) A knife used to kill whales had to wrapped in sealskin, not caribou skin. 4) After killing a seal melted snow had to dripped into its mouth to quench the spirit's thirst. 5) The Inuit saved the bladder of the hunted because they believed that’s where the spirit was found inside. One of the most important spirits was Sedna, The Goddess of the Sea. She provided them with food from the sea, which made the Inuit most happy.

Inuits have a strong bond because they have a community bond and relationship.The inuit have a strong boned have because they have to live together, and they have the same culture. In the video, their homes are next to each other. If they catch something, they share it with everyone, and everyone gets a portion depending on the size of their family. The inuit have a strong bond because they have to do pretty much everything with one another. They live next to each other, eat the same food, and hunt together, and have fun together.

More than 90% percent of the food in Alaska comes in from elsewhere. Also the Circumpolar Council-Alaska looks out for coastal villages in the state. The United States and the other countries all contribute to global warming and pollution that affects the Arctic. The oogruk are the largest of Alaska’s Ice seals. The inuit live in the Arctic region, which includes parts of Alaska, a few European countries and Russia. The Inuits in Alaska are having many problems because of global warming. They are having trouble finding food while hunting and Alaska already has to find it's food from other places.

The Inuit community was a Shamanistic society. Shamans ' role was as a mediator between the people and spirits, souls, and mythological beings. Witches and wizards had the role of Angakkuq (shaman) in Inuit society. They would use use, telling an epic story, use ritual objects, or dance to perform magic. By the end of the 19th century, the last shaman, Sagdlog, of the Inuits died. He was believed to be able to travel to the sky and under the sea, and many other shamanic magic such as ventriloquism and sleight-of-hand. This type of magic was all but lost to the Inuit except for a very small community that lives there now.

This is a compare and contrast paper about the Inuit and Cree tribes of Canada. In this essay/paper I will be comparing two tribes against each other. First I will tell you about the Inuit.

Soapstone is a soft material that is easy to be carved. However the stone breaks very easily due to this soft nature, This week we are learning how to carve soapstone pendants and jewelry, and we have already discovered several problems in the carving process. Thus it is so fascinating to see what the Inuit culture has done with this type of stone.

The article we read over the Inuit tribe in Alaska was about this group of people and how the chances of them getting cancer are so little, it almost never happens. “1 in 1000 chances” as it says in the blog. The author of the blog is arguing that the reason the Inuit tribe’s chances of getting cancer are so rare because of the vitamin B17, which is in grass, which is what caribou eat, which is what the Inuit people eat. According to the author, vitamin B17 (or Laetrile) causes cancer prevention. While I agree that the theory does make sense, I don’t necessarily agree with it due to my own amount of research. I agree that most of the facts do hold up, such as the one mentioned earlier about the “1 in 1000 chances” and the fact that the Inuit people’s diet consists of caribou, seal, salmon, bears, and others. But as a whole, I feel that it may be other factors that are contributing as to why the Inuit people’s chances of getting cancer are so low.

The Inuits have a strong bond because they have to depend on each other so that they can survive. For example, there might be a hunter and the hunter has to go get food for the rest of the family. So all the inuits are just like a machine everyone has a role that they have to do. In conclusion the inuits have a strong bond because they have to work together to survive
