Detailed explanation-1: -In other areas of the country the American Indians hunted using weapons such as the bow and arrow or using snares and traps. They hunted deer, ducks, rabbits and other animals. In the coastal areas or near large lakes, tribes would specialize in fishing. They often used spears or nets to catch fish.
Detailed explanation-2: -Many tribes survived the cold, harsh environment by hunting caribou, musk ox, bowhead whales, and even seals through the ice.
Detailed explanation-3: -These traditional Inuit foods include arctic char, seal, polar bear and caribou-often consumed raw, frozen or dried. The foods, which are native to the region, are packed with the vitamins and nutrients people need to stay nourished in the harsh winter conditions.
