[Natural History.冰雪世界].Ice Worlds Ep2.Polar People



a very good documentary produced by New Zealand introducing the life of native people in the Arctic Pole ,and also talking about the scientific research and wildlife in antarctic pole.

when i saw the scenes that the Eskimo peoples expressed their happiness by singing and dancing to celebrate their whale fishery,i had complicated emotions.i knew it`s part of their culture of autochthonism,but when i saw the tremendous body of the whale lying on the glacial beach,i felt it was a disgraceful behavior.
and when i saw the local people showing off their corpulency and warm coats which were made by killing dozens of arctic foxes or polar bears,i really felt silk.i don`t care whether it was their damn cultures or customs,they just can`t kill those animals because it is 2007 AD,not the barbarous world anymore.

one Eskimo guy said:without killing whales and polar bears,we will simple have nothing. i definitely know what he said is true,but in the position of protecting the wildlife and biological chain,i suppose they should stop doing these,i suppose there is always something that could be used as a substitute for killing whales if they change their notions.

if the Eskimo people have the warrants of whale fishing,the japanese killed whales just for commercial profit,and the japan is always the largest whale fishing countries in the world,and they are still dissatisfy and want to double the quota of whales,the action of this nation is disgusting.they are rich,they don`t need killing whales to get food and clothes,but they still continue killing this lovely animal.
