The Coldest Hunt: Nunivak Island Muskox | S5E11 | MeatEater 

you could hear the painful nights that man has been up with seal oil squirties

@@SnootyMinotaur Hahahaha

Surprised he didn’t say the jeeks

I wonder if he mentioned that because it's really good.

@@patrickgjorven7832 my thought XD

100%

from what i have heard the dude ain't really got much respect. for the animals sure but i have Heard his opinions on where he can hunt and where he can't. he don't respect other peoples private property and thinks hunters should be allowed to hunt where ever they want.

@@rampage3337 I’ve listened to almost all of his podcasts, I never heard anything like that. I have heard him talk about wanting more access to public land and private land through different programs. I by no means think Steve is perfect, but I think we as hunters could do a lot worse than having him as a representative.

@@rampage3337 mostly what he was talking about recently regarding this issue was people not allowing hunters to walk across a small portion of their property to get to the next plot of public game land.

I’ve enjoyed many episodes over the years. But I don’t think it’s too “classy” to turn a beautiful red fox into a fashion item for your wife. Maybe he was going to eat the fox before hand??? If not, not classy.

Needs to be a t-shirt

@@SG-ig2th underrated comment

That goes for most men

That's always true

Irony in sequence, hopefully not flavor for the sixty ninth like.

Amazing people. That get it, and are on the same wave ❤🤙

He says this because in Cup'ig culture, the spirit of an animal is what gives them a successful hunt. When a person's first hunt of an animal is successful, all the meat is given away. To show the spirits that they didn't give themselves to a selfish person.

@@wHITTYAF go back to 11:47 and listen to who he is praying to --> the Lord Jesus Christ.

@@matthewbarylski814 I'm under the impression you don't believe animals have a connection with God.

@@wHITTYAF what did I say makes you think that? Animals most certainly have a connection with God, their Creator.

i swear that question was awesome

Oh I totally agree! They're living a rich, fulfilling life in many regards.

@@Anon_E_Muss - Try not to romanticize it too much. I'm sure these people deal with the same substance abuse problems that plague all indigenous tribes.

@@Anon_E_Muss Coincidentally, I was out camping last week up north on a fishing trip. We weren't as far north as Rinella here but we were pretty far north. A group of natives arrived and set up camp next to us. Everything was going okay until I was awoken in the middle of the night by a couple of people having an argument. One of the comments shouted was "the reason we're here is because we dont have anywhere else to go!" meaning living on a reserve in the bush in the middle of nowhere wasnt their choice it was their only option. Really hit home when I read your comment.

@@bike4peaceRTW True, alcoholism and drug use is a real danger in and to these communities. Hopefully the kids just stick to the seal!

Same.

I got to get my laundry lol

These are all re-runs

@@Tyborz that’s because the people who run Netflix are twats that probably don’t eat meat , they would rather have crap like “cuties” on their platform

It was nice to see a battle buddy take Steve for a humbling ride!

I agree, thank you for your service!

Completely agree. These two guys seem really genuine and kind. Would love to have the opportunity to ask them all my silly questions.

My all time favorite meat eater episode, is where they talk about "shit on a stick", and Bryan Callen tells classic shit jokes

It's interesting how people wanting to go see them is exactly how they got sick and most of them were killed off.

Ey me too

No need for rehab

Theres a nothing name for dudes who love meat😂😂😂 sorry couldnt help myself

Hi CAMOVLOG

Same.

And hearing the odd English word thrown in with their native language too. So cool

@@charcboy8045 it’s very interesting because if you listen to old timey Australian aboriginals talk in their language they throw a little English here and there too

In Cup'ig culture, the first hunt of an animal is given away to people in the village, elders first. So that the spirits of the animals see that they didn't give themselves to a selfish individual.

@Danny Carvajal what a fking clown 🤡 Only a true douchebag would make a comment about the losers of the confederate army rising again under an inspirational quote about sharing & blessings🤦🏾‍♂️

@Danny Carvajal I am pretty sure God doesn't support racism. The Bible says to love your neighbor.

@Danny Carvajal “online” you mean history? Lmao the confederacy lasted 5 years and was never legitimate. what do you mean “again” it never rose at all lmao. failed miserably.

Yeah it seems so intense and existential when you cold AF

I know right?!

Gotta have a bunch of spare batteries to film in the cold lol

Right, we are all so different, but so vested. Ray was a vet. Lives on an island in NOWHERE but fraught our fight, but still so removed. Really highlights the blessings portion of the commentary.

@@alanhelton And still somehow named Raymond and joe and george lol

actually, it is sad if you think about it; The Natives / original inhabitants had their own religions until the white man arrived and "converted" the "heathens". Of course, at the end, the guy that mentioned how important sharing was saved the day.

@@siggifreud812 I mean it stopped them from going to hell

@@st.michaelsknight6299 there is no hell and there is no god. if there was a hell, missionaries and most christians would all be living there.

@@greyy357 Woah so edgy. Let me guess? If god real why bad thing happen? or Shellfish polyester? or maybe the great, why me no look outisde and see good?

@@st.michaelsknight6299 what the fuck is shellfish polyester? what I'm saying is that missionaries committed such awful acts to indigenous people in order to convert them into your religion. do you think these missionaries who beat, abused, raped, killed kids deserve to go to heaven? and them doing that stopped them from going to hell? I'm indigenous and my culture was destroyed by christianity.

I wanted to make a jacked up A$$hole comment, but I can't. Very well written my friend. I read it three times and agree completely. Thank you.

I'll admit that the first time I bagged a turkey I felt conflicted. They are such beautiful birds. Their feathers change in opalescent colors from red to green in the sunlight depending on the angle you look at them. Watching and hearing the toms gobble, strut, and drum for hens in the spring is a joy. Shooting that tom while he was strutting for two hens was a pretty rude interruption to his and the hen's agenda. However, it changed the way I look at all the poultry and meat I eat. I've caught, killed, and eaten plenty of fish and crabs in my life, but this was a big bird; probably close to 20 pounds. I had to learn and work hard to fill that turkey tag. He was beautiful and majestic in his own right, and now he was dead. I had taken his life. I wanted him to know I was grateful and respected him; that taking his life wasn't a small or inconsequential thing to me. I hadn't ended his life because I was blood thirsty, a glutton, looking for a trophy, or trying to prove something to myself or others. This was about understanding and knowing how meat ends up on my plate, how for untold generations meat wasn't an everyday meal, and how my ancestors fed themselves, their family, and their community. Tonight I cooked that turkey's legs and thighs for my mom, dad, and my brother's family of four. That gobbler was delicious and it was a special occasion. I was glad to share him with my family. I didn't want to waste anything from him and for people to understand what it took for me to bring him to the table. I think if we want to try and help people improve their relationship with food, they need to raise it or hunt for it. That way we can appreciate and respect it.

@@o0hbomb0o You get it. You've experienced all the senses, so you can appreciate the full picture. Enjoyed reading that.

Every thing you said is why hunting is so perverse, we actively go out and kill the animals that we find so beautiful

@@davidpritt5174 Are you anti-hunting David?

An honest heart and willingness to learn go a long way.

It's called money and alcohol

@J T appreciate the info..👍

Because of - "why you shoot this cute coyotes that fuck up 2-3 of your cows on a weekly basis" kind of people I can be wrong though. There's a lot of people that are so busy working and surviving, that they don't even have that much free time to watch this kind of videos, and get into it if they like it 🤷‍♂️

Best part about this comment is that it was edited and still has typos. Maybe you’ve been writing your name wrong on your applications all these years 😂.

@@Everybodypoops2 sorry buddy, they dont make phones key pads big enough for my fingers.

Salty?

Only Alaska Native people are allowed by US law to hunt sea mammals such as seal, walrus, and whales.

He s still in America. Alaska is part of America.

@@oren-tm4xx yeah, but he's with other cultures, is he not?

My first thought was - How much did that celery cost?

The Muskox even look like they’re from both 😂😂

@@jcfishing9732 they looked like mini Bantha's
