	Nature Worship in Siberian Shamanism
		Siberian shamanism, moreover, is involved in the cult of the dead, of ancestors and mountains, and in rituals of animal sacrifice.
		Naturally this idea has its antecedents, J. Stadling from Sweden (1912) has already stated that animistic ways of thinking are tightly interwoven with the world-view of shamanism.
		Among peoples with the hunting and fishing lifestyle, the daily interactions with their natural environment formed a unique world-view, the starting point here is that not only human beings, but all the animate and inanimate things of the world also have souls.

	R. v. Adams (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		A site-specific hunting or fishing right does not, simply because it is independent of aboriginal title to the land on which it took place, become an abstract fishing or hunting right exercisable anywhere; it continues to be a right to hunt or fish on the tract of land in question.
		This was a hunting and fishing territory situated in the immediate neighbourhood of their village and which is part of an easily identifiable whole.
		Fishing, hunting and trapping constitute traditionally and historically their means of subsistence and livelihood in the country which they have inhabited since well before 1763.

		Gray whales were nearly hunted to extinction for their flesh and oil.
		Whaling was halted in the U.S. in 1928.
		Although it is still illegal to hunt gray whales, an American aboriginal tribe in Vancouver has been given permission to kill five whales per year.

	R. v. Van der Peet (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		To characterize an applicant's claim correctly, a court should consider such factors as the nature of the action which the applicant is claiming was done pursuant to an aboriginal right, the nature of the governmental regulation, statute or action being impugned, and the practice, custom or tradition being relied upon to establish the right.
		The fact that that practice, custom or tradition continued after the arrival of Europeans, and adapted in response to their arrival, is not relevant to determination of the claim; European arrival and influence cannot be used to deprive an aboriginal group of an otherwise valid claim to an aboriginal right.
		The majority held that the appellant's claim was that the practice of selling fish "on a commercial basis" constituted an aboriginal right and, in part, rejected her claim on the basis that the evidence did not support the existence of such a right.

		They hunt and farm but are quite isolated since their area of habitat is of difficult access.
		Their traditional home-land is the frontier zone of Panamá and Colombia and the Pacific coast.
		They are animists and worship a pantheon of gods identified with all forms of nature: the sky, waters and forests, and for that reason have become strong defenders of the environment.

		Tradition is not reason enough for the continuation of cruel practices.
		Hunting is my way of life, maybe out in the "great state of New York" hunting is secondary to other things.
		From clear cutting tracts of woodlands to create more browse for deer, to creating exploding populations of animals who eat native plant species to the ground, hunting is not only hell on the animals who are its victims, but also to every inch of land that is hunted.

	Mr. Darwin Misread Miss Peacock's Mind by Merle Jacobs of Nature Books
		Noting that they appeared to be more energetic and stronger when they had to hunt for what they got, I would hide their food in various scattered areas and watch them search for it and scratch it up.
		Delbrük, who collaborated there, was naturally interested in fly chromosomes but, along with Morgan himself, realized that to determine the fundamental nature of the ultimate particle of life, the gene, something smaller than fly chromosomes must be found.
		He thought nature studies were "old fashioned." Like Darwin in his later years, Muller was a denizen of his den where he could usually be found with his magnifying glass observing fruit flies in little bottles.

	Welcome to Arctic Blast 2001 - A to Z
		Fish were caught by jigging through the ice along the edge of lakes and coastal waters; as ice melted, natural holes were used.
		Seals could be caught as they gathered to feed on the fish coming down the river…When spring harvesting was done, Inuit would travel inland to caribou crossing and hunt them by kayak and bow and arrow.
		When the white man entered the Inuit world in the 1800s you might have thought their influence would have changed this, but instead a new role for hunting was created, with the white man looking to buy fur from the natives.

	Makah Whale Hunt
		Though critics fear the Makah hunt will open the door to commercial whaling here and elsewhere, the Indians insist they plan to use the whale meat, oil and blubber only for their own food and for ceremonial purposes.
		Though the Makahs live in a spectacular forested setting hard by the roaring sea and at the mouth of the Strait of Juan de Fuca it is a community racked by joblessness and tainted by the plagues of modem life, such as drugs.
		Many here say that the whale hunt has succeeded in instilling a new sense of purpose in the lives of the young men selected for the hunt, and in the Makah nation at large.

	CNN.com - Traditions, perceptions clash as Japan expands whaling activities - September 5, 2000
		Secretary of State Madeline Albright has told the Japanese the United States is deeply troubled by the decision to expand the hunt, and said Washington, which lists both species as endangered, would not hesitate to impose penalties.
		All Japanese whaling boats are captained by investigators from the government-linked Cetacean Research Institute, which analyzes data gathered from the hunts.
		The institute is also in charge of marketing the meat and other byproducts, such as oils used in cosmetics and perfume, once the data are collected.

	CNN.com - Japan slams U.S. for sanctions threat over whales - September 5, 2000
		"We are concerned that the expansion of the Japanese hunt to larger whales is aimed at paving the way for an outright resumption of commercial whaling," Mineta said.
		The commission requires that all parts of whales taken for research be used, and parts wind up being sold commercially in fish markets.
		In 1999, Japan hunted 100 minke whales in the North Pacific, and 440 minke whales in Antarctic waters.

	Fish and fishers come to market
		However, when the wholesale price of fish dipped to 95 cents a pound and the cost of diesel fuel was $1.38 a gallon, they began last year to market the fish at the North Berkeley (Thursday), Oakland (Friday) and El Cerrito Plaza (Saturday) farmers' markets, just breaking even.
		Parravano started by selling his fish to restaurants and grocery stores, but quickly figured, as did the Hudsons, that sales at farmers' markets was what would sustain him as a fisherman.
		However, he stresses the fact that coastal fishing communities and the traditions and the craft of fisher families are part of the web that must be sustained.

	Nature's Grocery Store
		There were fish and mussels in the streams and birds in the air.
		The fact is that Native Americans were "masters of nature's universe" —they knew when fruits, nuts, and seeds were ripe, which plants were useful (and which were poisonous), how to trap and hunt animals both big and small, and how to prepare all these foods.
		And until people started growing their own crops about 1000 to 1500 years ago in some parts of Texas, the prehistoric diet was naturally low in fat and full of vitamins.

	Among gods and kings by Karen Wilkin
		A spectacular 1777 painting of a tiger hunt, by Hansraj Joshi, from Kotah, bears witness to what happened to such imported Persian painting traditions when, as in Rajasthan, they were combined with bold local styles after Muslim rule was imposed.
		In the Polskys’ tiger hunt, both the rhythmic power of rows of trees with pink and blue trunks and a delectable marzipan palette persuade you to overlook the picture’s implications of slaughter—the impending doom of the two tigers trapped in nets, or the malevolent intentions of the royal hunting party lurking among the trees.
		he sections of the show devoted to “the realm of kings” include portraits, hunting scenes, and images of courtly pleasures that are compelling for both their formal excellences and their vision of an exotic, opulent way of life.

	Lakeland Terrier - OzPets Dog Breed Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		The terriers needed to be courageous to face the fox in their rocky mountain dens, and tales have been told of some of these early terriers being so game and tenacious as to follow fox and otter so far underground that blasting was required to extricate them.
		The dogs which continually showed their courage were coveted as breeding stock and their puppies were given out amongst friends and followers of the hunt.
		However, for prospective owners who have excellent fencing and who enjoy the independent nature of terriers, the Lakeland Terrier is well worthy of consideration.

		There is something especially contemporary, too, about this open unfenced good nature, a social occasion in which everyone is lounging casually and happily in jeans, communicating in the same idiom, and all but merging into one another, though of course George has different problems from Harry and Louie is more outgoing than Jean.
		And what particularly interests Pinsky, what he sees as the contemporary note, is being very precise, and yet at the same time apologizing for one’s precision, being dandified or rhetorical not naively or—as Leigh Hunt said about Keats—‘unmisgivingly,’ but in a humourous and deprecating, self-puncturing, ‘I know you know I know’ sort of way.
		And it is this absoluteness which may be feared, even perhaps unconsciously resented, by younger American poets, who find it easier as well as more feasible to develop the territory of Stevens and Carlos Williams, the territory in which dogs and cats and hogs and snowmen feel equally at home.

	International Whaling Commission Approves Russian and Makah Gray Whale Quota (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		The International Whaling Commission today adopted a quota that allows a five-year aboriginal subsistence hunt of an average of four non-endangered gray whales a year for the Makah Indian Tribe, combined with an average annual harvest of 120 gray whales by Russian natives of the Chukotka region.
		The U.S. government's environmental assessment of the hunt found it will not adversely affect the gray whale stock's healthy status, which is currently at more than 22,000.
		The Alaska Eskimos have been conducting aboriginal subsistence hunts with approval of the International Whaling Commission since the commission began regulating such hunts in the 1970's.

		Thus, while the hunt accounted for the killing of 328 bears, this reduction must be considered in light of the better data developed as a result of the hunt, which document a population more than fifty percent smaller than assumed at the time of game code adoption last year.
		In my discussions with Fish and Wildlife Division biologists, the biologists suggested that, among other factors accounting for the change in population estimate, dispersal of bears to Pennsylvania and New York may be stabilizing the population at far lower numbers than previously thought.
		Yet, administration of the hunt in the context of substantial public controversy severely limits the staff time and resources available for public education, bear feeding- ban enforcement, and development of immunocontraceptive alternatives.

		Although the coast of the Bering and Chukchi seas were occupied as early as the Alaska Peninsula, these areas, often considered the heartland of Eskimo Culture, did not exhibit a maritime adaptation until much later.
