Hunting Narwhal in Spring and Summer

Hunting Narwhal in Spring and Summer

Hunting Narwhal in the Spring and Summer is a guide to hunting one of the most
important game animals in the North. This book includes advice on preparing for the
hunt, locating narwhal, butchering and skinning the animal, and preserving the meat. It
also includes information about traditional Inuit hunting methods and reflections on
ethical and environmentally conscious hunting.

Hunting is one of the most important land skills in the Arctic and continues to be an
important source of income and food for many people and communities. The Hunter
Education series shares traditional Inuit hunting knowledge, including the importance of
environmental stewardship. It also discusses proper hunting techniques, safety, and
animal behaviour.

Supplementary video resources with real hunting footage and interviews with hunters,
Elders, and wildlife officers are available online.
