S10 E2: Voices of the North: A Community Feast and Caribou

25 Sep 2025

Description

After learning about hunting from Lukasi, Emma joins Aputik at a traditional community feast in Kuujjuaq's theater – and discovers that Inuit food culture is unlike anything she's ever experienced! From raw frozen caribou (yes, really!) to whale skin cut with traditional ulu knives, Emma explores the incredible variety of “country food” that hunters provide for their community. She also meets Allen, a knowledgeable hunter who explains the dramatic boom-and-bust cycles of caribou populations. Join Emma as she discovers that in the Arctic, a community feast isn't just about food – it's about sharing knowledge, taking care of elders, and keeping thousands-year-old traditions alive. Plus, get ready for ptarmigans (Arctic chickens!) and the amazing story of how communities ensure no one goes hungry. Next episode: Meet the remarkable young hunter Nuka and learn all about his first muskox hunt! If you're a kid who loves learning science and animal facts, you'll love Earth Rangers!
