Ok, so if you missed it, I would totally suggest* that you check out Whale Hunters by the National Geographic Channel. I like that the documentary makers didn’t seem to “pretty up” any of the facts about the lifestyle of the Inupiat Eskimos that hunt the bowhead whales that pass near Point Barrow each year. Check it out if you can….
*If you are a seriously squeamish sort, this suggestion isn’t so much for you.
