The indigenous Chukchi people from the Chukotka Peninsula (west of Alaska) believe they come from whales. The life of the Chukchi revolves around hunting marine mammals - grey whales, seals and walruses. The men gather to go into the sea to ‘take’ food. The Chukchi don’t say ‘kill’. Sea hunters spend days on the water, often risking their lives. But their job is in high demand. When hunters return with a catch, they share it with the community. They’re not allowed to sell it. Only 136 grey whales a year is a quota set for the Chukchi by the International Whaling Commission.
