and girls for all you know all of the shown dogs could be female? all the same cute stop with this retarded shitty saying implying that only one gender is capable of anything and females are just mindless lesser childbags and it is exception for them to have the desire to explore or whatever atleast in 21 century AD
The dogs are miserable, worse than even hound racing, dogsledding are the deadliest and cruelest race events on earth, hiding its uglies from the public eyes. Racers, breeders literally worked their dogs to exhaustion and death on impossible races. Large percent of dogs dont get to finish the race, and are left to die on the track. Those lucky that havent die form exhaustion, but too injured to race are still made to carry load to the finish line, and after the event they are seen as useless thus are also neglected to death. Eventually abandoned outside in the cold, not fed by owners to rot away. Artic dog racing events have been exposed of many horrible treatments of dogs from breeding, lack of care throughout dogs lives, and the gruesome racing itself. These racing events are just blood sport, that are nothing like the native who used dogsleds for survival neccesity and didnt work dogs to death on impossible journey just for entertainment or gimmick prizes.
@@savage9436 I get what youre saying but how many folks would meet this grind with bitterness? How many others would exude an obvious desire to escape. This man isnt surviving, hes thriving, all challenges aside. You can *enjoy* working to meet your needs, theyre not mutually exclusive?
Okay but the part where he says "Thank you Mama" for the meal 🥹 The dogs were cool, the polar bear was majestic, but something about shared meals get me every time 😭😭🤧
Everyone that wants to buy a husky should watch this video and see just was kind of extreme athlete they are. So sad to see how many good husky end up in city shelters nowadays. But how amazing it is to watch them in their true environment, flourishing in the snow and running to their heart's content!
@@C_71 yeah. But I think the original comment meant you shouldn’t get a husky because it looks cool on social media and expect them to lay around cozily in your apartment all day. 🥹
I agree!! It breaks my heart to see so many beautiful, loving huskies in shelters because some one decided to get them without research. The dogs suffer for the human’s careless.
Sled dogs are one of the most amazing breeds in the canine world. It's horrible what the RCMP did in the early history of Resolute. If the Inuit people weren't so resourceful, they could have been extinct. Terrible to think that a culture could have been lost. We, as a society, could learn more from them. Yes, it's sad that seals and whales have to die, BUT these people are not wasteful of their resources. Human and dog alike eat every part of the animals they hunt. Shane was a great narrator for the show. I like his style of communication and his firsthand experience with Devin. Great show
The Inuit people manage their resources long term. Their entire culture revolves around sustainability. Even if they hunt seals and whales, they make sure these animals are still available for next season. Then we have the Swedes who have turned whale hunting into either a commercial venture or a blood sport to make themselves feel 'manly' and are very willing to wipe out an entire species for their 'culture' while lecturing others about sustainability. Glad more light is being shed on their community. They are a wonderful community.
@@MahiMahi-yu5jo Sure, it may be sustainable but that's not the same as it being ethical and it isn't ethical in any way. It doesn't matter if it's from the shitty corporate companies or the Inuit people, whaling in any form is not humane. In fact, how unethical it is, is on the same level as hunting elephants. According to many scientific studies, whales are highly intelligent and have complex social structures that are extremely similar to human social structures. Now, I'd normally send a few links of scientific studies but unfortunately youtube likes to flag my comment as spam when I do that so I can't.
Yet another reason to hate the RCMP and Canadian Settler-Colonialism. The idea of Canada being a utopian society of some kind that could never harm others is repulsive and so untrue when you learn of the true history of their killings and displacement of indigenous people. Bless Dev and his family. Hope they and his team of dogs continue to thrive.
This episode is so awesome. I have two Siberian Huskies that I rescued......or should I say they rescued me. They are really one of a kind dogs. Alot of them end up in shelters because people don't realize how much work they can be. If you are willing to put in the time it can be a rewarding experience. If you wish to bring one into your home please check your local shelter first.
" i have the BEST Mom in the world". Thats priceless And si wonderful and refreshing to hear.❤ Im sure she is proud of you and knows she has the best son in the world aswel. #Awesome doc AMAZING DOGS❤
Amazing documentary centered on the indigenous people's stories and their connection to their dogs! I strive to make documentaries like this for my people!
This was absolutely amazing to watch! What a dedicated kid Devin is. Very cool to get a glimpse of this life and learn some things I didn’t know. 💜 And thanks to the journalist for putting himself out of his comfort zone!
I'm raising an Inuit sled puppy from an ancient Baffin Island line. She's the most intense dog I've ever met. Her favorite hobby is full contact wrestling with my adult husky while trail running. I have high hopes for her as an endurance athlete who should be able to pull off about 70km per day on bikepacking trips. She's the most hands on dog I've ever met too, if you can't back up your words with physical action she won't respect you at all.
Loved this program, would like to see more about these kinds of dogs, and life in these harsher climates. This one reminds me of other specials I've seen about sled dogs. One showed a history of how they were gathered up and shipped from Canada to Europe to be used during the 2nd world War. Another one showed how authentic sled dog's hearts are different from a regular dogs.
This is such an incredible thing. Felt bad for the Inuit when they were relocated from their original land to barren unhabitable land. Thank God they survived and thrive. Long live to all of you including your precious dogs!!
As someone who was raised in the arctic circle, the idea of "no don't hunt the *insert animal here* for meat it's too meeeeean" has always been so intensely insulting. I'm glad to see some spotlight shone on people for whom meat is an essential part of the diet, on hunting seal and whale without the bad press. I'm sure there are people out there who don't need to be hunting these animals and do it for fun and shouldn't be, but the media like to paint with a broad brush and make anyone who hunts these animals a villain, and that's just not it. Also, god these dogs are something else. I live in the south now, and I have a husky who is, technically, related to the inuit dogs, but they're on a whole other level. They're so gd cool.
Those arguments are brain dead and it really is unfortunate that you received them. I was blessed to be born in a tropical region and have a plethora of plant foods ready and available through out the year. I wasn't dependant on meat. Does not give me the right to criticize people who do depend on meat to survive.
Speaking of hunting and huskies... is there any chance I can convince my apartament husky to share space with a caged rabbit? Or îs a lost cause and i'm asking too much?
@@2000Smillie I agree, but I live 3 km away from Mountains. One hour away from one of the biggest natural reservations (mountain) în Europe. I let the gentle dog eat my floors Doors, tables, takes baths daily and so on. It's hard for me not for him.
@@2000Smillie apartament or not, City or not, we go for walks, it sees small animals (except dogs) and we fly ! Can take the husky out of the wild, but you can't take the wild out of him. ( two days ago we saw sheep and cows behind a fence and the little devil managed to "call" the sheep near the fence. They saw the dog, ran to him, then he moved too quick from sheppard to wolf and they ran faster back )
Devon Manik had to learn from RUclips because generations of hunting knowledge was stripped from the Inuit people when the Royal Canadian Mounted Police slaughtered hundreds of sled dogs to prevent the Inuit people from hunting and leaving town.
Thank you so much!! I loved this I have had Huskies for 27 years and currently have a husky and my precious Malamute Ace. He is the most amazing soul and I would die for him. Loved this so much Bless you Mina❄️
Great work to everyone who was involved (including the dogs)! I love the open-minded perspective and overall clear enjoyment coming from every bit of this, which is hard to get in documentary’s about indigenous dogs and their people ^^
My self I have a Canadian Inuit dog he is such a great dog but you do need to keep him working (pulling something, sled, bike) or he will destroy your house lol. Great documentary I love to see more about this are breed in his native habitat living along his human.
That's my girls' relatives! Very true and sad about not being able to find elders to pass on the traditional knowledge. But glad the young Manik found new ways to learn from Greenland!
Why did they kill the sled dogs? How can humans be that cruel? I’m so glad Devon and his mother shared their story❤️🙏. Earth would be a much better place if we all lived like them- one with nature. It’s so beautiful❤️❤️❤️
How lovely to see sled dogs in their natural environment, being happy and active! I get so, SO mad when I see ignorant people making them live in hot parts of the world like Florida or not giving them the active lifestyle they need. Anyone before buying any dog should check what is needed to make them thrive and if they can provide it.
Turns out that the cartoons of my childhood showing "Dudley Dooright" of the Royal Canadian Mounties was as unfortunate for the Inuit and their Huskies, as the majestic Bison met with in the genocidal governance of the U.S.! Maybe should have be called Dudley Doowrong! Shameful history and this young man is a modern day hero! Thank you for bringing this story to light ~
Muktuk is what we all need. We would all be better off if we all ate more muktuk. These dogs are our animal brothers and sisters. They are built to pull, and they love it. Deep in their DNA, they love nothing more than to pull. They are our partners. We need each other. They know it, and we know it. In this video, they are in a Greenland fan hitch. This is the best way for moving over the ice. One must always respect Nanook. He is the king of the ice. But if all else fails, remember that Nanook is left handed. Always move to your left to avoid his left paw.
So, it's really weird how you compared a sled dog's calories per day to just like, a regular average person doing no labor and in a temperate environment. That seems completely pointless? For someone living and working in the arctic, they are looking at 8k+ calories a day to avoid losing weight assuming they are laboring. And the top athletes in the world are also 10k+ calories a day in hardcore training/competition mode. Using a 2k figure for humans is just disingenuous in these circumstances.
The sled dogs are well known miserable, neglected, worse than even hound racing, dogsledding are the deadliest and cruelest race events on earth, hiding its uglies from the public eyes.

As a teenager My uncle always brings me whenever he go Monitor Lizard hunting which is twice a year in the Philippines and bring all his 8 dogs trained to hunt and we only have air guns , the kind that you pump manually we rarely use it since the dogs are the ones doing the hunting , we're just there if the monitor lizards is up the Tree or in their lair underground.
PBS Terra, although this is a different subject than what I'm about to bring up, it still involves dogs. In AK and Canada's Yukon Terr., there are probably more dogsled races than I'm listing here--Iditarod, Kuskokwim 300, Copper Basin 300, and Yukon Quest, plus tons more in the Lower 48. Of course, using dogs to live and using them for sport are 2 different stories, and ways of life. Regardless, it showcases the multiple uses, and the remarkable fitness level, of these dogs.
The dogs overheated in the arctic. That’s crazy. I noticed how long their tongues are. That will help but it’s partly why human sweating is so essential to why we have the greatest endurance on the planet. Even in the arctic with tongues hanging out the dogs can’t cool off as well as humans.
12:17 the cool thing is that it totally happened! The Dorset and Pre-Dorset culture existed from about 5000 years ago to around the time the proto-inuit people arrived in the 1300s, in the same area that this video takes place. Their technology was even more limited than the Inuit - with evidence suggesting they didn’t have boats, bows, or dogs. They mostly seem to have hunted sea mammals with harpoons. Interestingly, no one really knows what happened to them, but considering that estimates of their total population (across the entire Canadian archipelago that they inhabited) are usually around 3000, they probably disappeared into Inuit populations in the 1400s or smth.
I feel bad for the Inuit people when it got to the part of their relocation, and the killing of their dogs. I feel like everyone in the world owes an apology to the native people of where they're living, if they're not part of native people of that land.
People need to be aware what their breeds are meant to do. Dog breeds matter way beyond looks. Breed affects temperament and behavior. Huskies should not be owned by people in the city in my opinion.

To kill off the native population same with the native Americans and the Buffalo on the plains it’s a kind of genocide

To trap the natives, make them reliant and because they’d be reliant they’d be compliant to the Canadian government.

The dogs overheated in the arctic. That’s crazy. I noticed how long their tongues are. That will help but it’s partly why human sweating is so essential to why we have the greatest endurance on the planet. Even in the arctic with tongues hanging out the dogs can’t cool off as well as humans.
I noticed only 1 dog in the front row, guessing it was the dominance 1 and the rest behind just following him, is it true? And how about direction??
I really enjoyed this video.
Incredible video
12:17 the cool thing is that it totally happened! The Dorset and Pre-Dorset culture existed from about 5000 years ago to around the time the proto-inuit people arrived in the 1300s, in the same area that this video takes place.
Their technology was even more limited than the Inuit - with evidence suggesting they didn’t have boats, bows, or dogs. They mostly seem to have hunted sea mammals with harpoons.
Interestingly, no one really knows what happened to them, but considering that estimates of their total population (across the entire Canadian archipelago that they inhabited) are usually around 3000, they probably disappeared into Inuit populations in the 1400s or smth.
Wonder how long my Siberian Husky would survive. 11 and thinks he is a pup still. Man I love him.
Maybe a weird thing to notice, but look at how CLEAN those dogs' teeth are! Raw bones are the og toothbrushes for carnivores!
I was afraid of dogs until I moved to the U.S. Now I can’t get enough of them!
Do you mind me asking why? Just out of curiosity 😊 what caused the change when you moved to the US?
The full video is private?
I've been interested in watching sled dogs videos because of the movie Togo.
This was awesome -- I watched it twice
I could never do that life, I'm too wimpy. LOL But sledding for fun was great when I had an 11 dog team of Malamutes.
I feel bad for the Inuit people when it got to the part of their relocation, and the killing of their dogs. I feel like everyone in the world owes an apology to the native people of where they're living, if they're not part of native people of that land.
He got his first real kill when I was struggling in counter strike
Vegetarians are gonna cry in this place
This is the best purpose for keeping a dog. Hunting
Every husky forum " only feed your husky high quality food! ".. meanwhile we got this guy feeding his huskies raw seals 🤣🤣
Since all their dogs were killed when moving into that location, where did he get his dog from? Was someone secretly guarding a few individual dogs?
That happened decades before. They probably bought it from another community, if there weren't already a few dogs there.
I have 7 dogs and 5 of them are roughly 50% genetics from that kennels program. Then another guy mixed them with malamutes and siberian huskies.
My guess would be another community, too. He's not very old, so he could've gone online to find communities that had puppies.
It is a very dark history. Wow.
People need to be aware what their breeds are meant to do. Dog breeds matter way beyond looks. Breed affects temperament and behavior. Huskies should not be owned by people in the city in my opinion.
How do you select the good reliable leader dog?
