hello gentleman, I was some days away and had there a TV. I quite remember this old style technology from decades gone now.
there was a movie this evening about eskimo hunter in north west greenland. not bad at all, they were very clear about the problems, an old culture that can be lost for ever because of alcohol( the eskimo can not handel this poison), danish welfare system that having equal bad results like the australian welfare system for the aboriginals, the chance and the danger for the people in greenland thats in the immense oil and gas resources they found there.
the maybe biggest problems for the man who wish to life as hunters are quotas on animals they can hunt in a year and the break down for seal furs on the international market because of the baby seal "hunting" in canada in the 1980s.
a quote when living in the artic is a very bad idea

can be seen here but sound is only in german and in french. they use the same kind of blind on the ice like hundreds years ago. rifles seems to be in the 222 rem/223 rem class

the eskimo hunters are very aware what for a lost it would be if their culture and the knowledge about living and hunting in the ice will be go!
must be a real honour to being out with this frontiersman

bakposten, I notice the birds were cormorant's! what is the opinion about this bird in norway?
is there a possibilty to manage this bird?
to say it here I am happy to see the cormorant only twenty years ago it was rare in my area.
but if a forestry official make a quota how many reed deer and roe deer have to shoot a year to save the forest fishery official's can also make a quota for cormorants.
