Inuit Ice Fishing
The Inuit ethnic group, who make up most of Nunavut’s population, have a diet that consists mainly of fish and seals. They also use seals, whales, and related sea mammals as a source of clothing, building materials, and fuel for light and heat. Shown here is an Inuit man ice fishing.
