FOOD• In the winter seals were harpooned at

their breathing holes in the ice. A hunter might have to stand still for hours waiting for the seal to come up for air.

• In the summer the seals came out of the water to sun themselves. The hunter can crawl close to the seal and throw a harpoon to kill the seal.

• In late summer the caribou were hunted. Inuit hunters made camp near the caribou grazing grounds. They would ambush the slow-moving herd with bows and arrows.

CLOTHING• Warm clothing was important

• The walrus, seal, and furry mammals supply food and clothing to the Inuit. All parts of the animals were used. Parkas (heavy coats) were made of seal-skin.

• Sealskin was usually worn in the summer. And caribou skin was worn in the winter. Caribou skin was light weight, yet very warm. The women skinned the animals and made the clothing. The women used bones for needles and gut thread. Both men and women wore hooded tunics and trousers over long boots. the women's tunics were made very large so she could carry her baby inside the tunic.
