Uhler explains, the expedition consisted of an impressive collection of scientists, artists, photographers and writers to explore the Alaska coast, from the southeast boundary all the way to the Seward Peninsula. Members of the expedition spent five days in Glacier Bay, and collected a wealth of data along with some memorable adventures. Soon after the Harriman party departed, the tourism and exploration in Glacier Bay came to an abrupt halt. According to Uhler, “In September 1899, a massive earthquake shattered the Muir Glacier. Masses of floating ice prevented ships from closely approaching the glacier for at least a decade, and the steamship companies removed Glacier Bay from their itineraries.” Over the next few decades, Uhler states; Glacier Bay belonged to a hardy assortment of scientists and adventurous entrepreneurs, as well as native seal hunters, fishermen and egg-gatherers.
With most of the wolf populations residing in Northeastern Minnesota, some wolf packs have been venturing into central Minnesota and Wisconsin. These areas are considered prime dairy land and hold more expensive and larger amounts of cattle. The DNR has classified Minnesota into two zones of protection: Zone A and Zone B (United). Zone A is the northern third part of the state, which is considered the wolves’ zone. This zone is filled with more state parks and undesired farm land.

Diamond mentions on page 107 that a possible ideology that many people that knew about the processes of farming were thinking was, “Shall I spend today hoeing my garden (predictably yielding a lot of vegetables several months from now), gathering shellfish (predictably yielding a little meat today), or hunting deer (yielding possibly a lot of meat today, but more likely nothing)?” Humans and animals are always prioritizing by availability and preferability of food choices. Availability played a key role because as wild game was hunted, its numbers depleted and became harder to hunt, offering less possibility of a decent payoff. This is possibly why in central and southeastern Europe the hunter-gatherer lifestyle became less effective, thus being a less likely life

Its name comes from Mahlemuts, an Alaskan tribe that would raise and cared for them. (terrificpets) 2000 to 3000 years ago the Eskimos of Alaska highly valued the dogs as they were their only form of transportation. They pulled not only light traveling sleds, but they also hauled heavy loads of food and supplies for the Arctic people. The Alaskan malamute has a thick, coarse guard coat. The undercoat is dense, from one to two inches in depth, oily and woolly which protects them from cold weather.
Today, the Inuits are highly dependent on traditional methods of obtaining food through hunting and fishing. Inuits were first introduced to Westerners in the Thirteenth century. The encounters began between the Norse colonists on Western shore and Inuit hunters. During the 17th and 18th centuries, traders returned to Europe with many artifacts from the Inuits.
