The video introduces the Inuit people living in the Arctic regions of Greenland, Canada, and Alaska. It covers their traditional diet, which includes raw, frozen, or dried seal, caribou, and fish. The Inuit use animal skins for clothing to stay warm. Historically, they built igloos from snow but now live in insulated houses. Transportation has evolved from kayaks and sledges to motorboats and snowmobiles. The Inuit economy relies on hunting, fishing, reindeer herding, and fur trapping. Traditional hunting tools like spears have been replaced by guns and harpoons.
