Ukaruk. Rendered beluga oil used to preserve muktuk. Finished the muktuk so it is bait now. Like bacon grease on steroids.

"Muskrat what are you calling the "Bible" in the deer's guts? We take another part too - what we call the deer's apron. Mesentaries would be the book name. You know it. It is the thin like "see thru" layer wrapped around the deer's guts. Lots of fat in it. We just throw it on the snow to cool and then ball it up for trail food on the way home.

Thanks Northern Trapper I have another caribou hunting video ready to go but waiting to get a little more video as it is too short for a mixed video. This has been the best caribou year I have seen in my life. the caribou showed up end of October and stayed on the edge of the delta all winter. Still about 10000 bou within cell phone range of Aklavik.

Once you get the fence and stuff set up they are quick to assemble and if you take the bait out and the beats leave them alone they should be good for several years with minimum bother.

Beautiful country Muskrat. I like your sleigh. Sure is deep, you can pack a lot of stuff in it. Looks like your tongue on it got a little tweeted . Stay safe

I dropped trees on it a couple times. Lucky I never hit the sled. That's my wood hauling sled. It must be 15 years old now that black plastic really saves it.

That Ox meat is good stuff. Assume you are allowed to shoot some. The Canadian Ox are noticeably larger than ours in Alaska.

Its the same Greenlandic muskox that you have Marten, They made there way over from Kaktovik area in the 80s. I wonder if they have muskox legends about travelling through the Panama Canal? The closest Canadian muskox we have are eat of Tuktoyaktuk near the Anderson River.
