polar bear hunting
Stalking seals northward
Polar bear hunting is the practice of tracking and killing polar bears, traditionally for subsistence by Arctic indigenous peoples who use the meat, fat, and fur.
In modern contexts, it often refers to regulated trophy hunting in regions like Canada and Greenland, where permits are limited and expensive.
The activity is controversial due to climate-related threats to polar bear populations: The debate over polar bear hunting intensifies as sea ice shrinks.
