Greetings Here is a type of hunting where you could die very quickly. I can't even pronounce
the name of their place. The food is free, but look and see where they have to venture to
just to get to it. Just imagine going down into a place like this.The following info was in an
email I received from a friend.
Enjoy

The people of Kangiqsujiuaq in Canada go to great lengths to add to their diet of seal meat,
venturing under the sea ice during the extreme low tides of the spring equinox to gather
mussels. For these mussel hunters it is a race against time. They have less than half an hour
to search for mussels before the tide rushes back in. A look-out keeps watch for the returning
tide, but warning shouts can't be too loud, the echoes can bring down the huge blocks of ice.
