I bet that skin was a nice souvenir. I wouldn't think they would have eaten it tho.

I wonder is fishing from the conning tower was banned?

...and you get angry because they killed something fluffy.

You need to find a little perspective. There is no fate a bear can have that is any worse
than the slow starvation and freezing that causes the death of the majority of bears in the wild.

ummm, A hoochie-woochie choir wearing bearskin capes? :hmm:

I think the Italians have a battle-cry for soldiers (and choirs) dressed in that fashion: LIBERACE!

Just from personal experiance - It's not. The Inupiat indians (eskimos from the VERY N of Alaska) eat it and to be honest tastes very oily and fishy! Had to try it once... But it's VERY high in fat so it'll provide you with alot of energy...

I'm sure it's one of those things you just have to get used to.

Kind of like seal: I'm sure it's not a real taste treat to those of us below the 70th parallel, but it's just what's for dinner above it.

Task Force · 12-22-08, 11:03 PM

:rotfl:So they like seals and polar bears up there.

YukonJack_AK · 12-22-08, 11:33 PM

Well.... Seal tastes actually WORSE than Polar Bear... even more fishy and oily but the absolute worst IMO is muk-tuk. They take whale blubber, mix it with sugar and berries, stuff it inside a seal skin and then bury it in the frozen ground till it ferments and get all hard. Then they dry it out and shave off pieces to eat like jerky... nasty white rubbery jerky. Again... it's very fatty so it keeps you going but that's one taste that is simply... indescribable...

Edit: We don't actually EAT that stuff... it's just a 'traditional' thing for many of the eskimo cultures

Task Force · 12-22-08, 11:52 PM

ooooah, I knew youall wouldn't eat that stuff for fun.

I saw an episode of Pilot Guides where the host, Ian Wright, was invited to dine with a group of Inuit on Baffin Island. Everything was going fine until they brought out a bowl of seal excrement. For the sake of politeness Ian tried some but you could tell that he was pretty revolted. Although I can't stand him I've got to give the guy credit for actually trying it as I'm sure that I wouldn't have been so polite.
