    The dogs are miserable, worse than even hound racing, dogsledding are the deadliest and cruelest race events on earth, hiding its uglies from the public eyes. Racers, breeders literally worked their dogs to exhaustion and death on impossible races. Large percent of dogs dont get to finish the race, and are left to die on the track. Those lucky that havent die form exhaustion, but too injured to race are still made to carry load to the finish line, and after the event they are seen as useless thus are also neglected to death. Eventually abandoned outside in the cold, not fed by owners to rot away. Artic dog racing events have been exposed of many horrible treatments of dogs from breeding, lack of care throughout dogs lives, and the gruesome racing itself. These racing events are just blood sport, that are nothing like the native who used dogsleds for survival neccesity and didnt work dogs to death on impossible journey just for entertainment or gimmick prizes.

    Sled dogs are one of the most amazing breeds in the canine world. It's horrible what the RCMP did in the early history of Resolute. If the Inuit people weren't so resourceful, they could have been extinct. Terrible to think that a culture could have been lost. We, as a society, could learn more from them. Yes, it's sad that seals and whales have to die, BUT these people are not wasteful of their resources. Human and dog alike eat every part of the animals they hunt. Shane was a great narrator for the show. I like his style of communication and his firsthand experience with Devin. Great show

    The Inuit people manage their resources long term. Their entire culture revolves around sustainability. Even if they hunt seals and whales, they make sure these animals are still available for next season. Then we have the Swedes who have turned whale hunting into either a commercial venture or a blood sport to make themselves feel 'manly' and are very willing to wipe out an entire species for their 'culture' while lecturing others about sustainability. Glad more light is being shed on their community. They are a wonderful community.

    ​@@MahiMahi-yu5jo Sure, it may be sustainable but that's not the same as it being ethical and it isn't ethical in any way. It doesn't matter if it's from the shitty corporate companies or the Inuit people, whaling in any form is not humane. In fact, how unethical it is, is on the same level as hunting elephants. According to many scientific studies, whales are highly intelligent and have complex social structures that are extremely similar to human social structures. Now, I'd normally send a few links of scientific studies but unfortunately youtube likes to flag my comment as spam when I do that so I can't.

    As someone who was raised in the arctic circle, the idea of "no don't hunt the *insert animal here* for meat it's too meeeeean" has always been so intensely insulting. I'm glad to see some spotlight shone on people for whom meat is an essential part of the diet, on hunting seal and whale without the bad press. I'm sure there are people out there who don't need to be hunting these animals and do it for fun and shouldn't be, but the media like to paint with a broad brush and make anyone who hunts these animals a villain, and that's just not it. Also, god these dogs are something else. I live in the south now, and I have a husky who is, technically, related to the inuit dogs, but they're on a whole other level. They're so gd cool.

    I could never do that life, I'm too wimpy. LOL But sledding for fun was great when I had an 11 dog team of Malamutes.

    How lovely to see sled dogs in their natural environment, being happy and active! I get so, SO mad when I see ignorant people making them live in hot parts of the world like Florida or not giving them the active lifestyle they need. Anyone before buying any dog should check what is needed to make them thrive and if they can provide it.

    The dogs overheated in the arctic. That’s crazy. I noticed how long their tongues are. That will help but it’s partly why human sweating is so essential to why we have the greatest endurance on the planet. Even in the arctic with tongues hanging out the dogs can’t cool off as well as humans.

    So, it's really weird how you compared a sled dog's calories per day to just like, a regular average person doing no labor and in a temperate environment. That seems completely pointless? For someone living and working in the arctic, they are looking at 8k+ calories a day to avoid losing weight assuming they are laboring. And the top athletes in the world are also 10k+ calories a day in hardcore training/competition mode. Using a 2k figure for humans is just disingenuous in these circumstances.

    The sled dogs are well known miserable, neglected, worse than even hound racing, dogsledding are the deadliest and cruelest race events on earth, hiding its uglies from the public eyes. Racers, breeders literally worked their dogs to exhaustion and death on impossible races. Large percent of dogs dont get to finish the race, and are left to die on the track. Those lucky that havent die form exhaustion, but too injured to race are still made to carry load to the finish line, and after the event they are seen as useless thus are also neglected to death. Eventually abandoned outside in the cold, not fed by owners to rot away. Artic dog racing events have been exposed of many horrible treatments of dogs from breeding, lack of care throughout dogs lives, and the gruesome racing itself. These racing events are just blood sport, that are nothing like the native who used dogsleds for survival neccesity and didnt work dogs to death on impossible journey just for entertainment or gimmick prizes.
