A lot of Inuit live in poverty stricken homes and can't afford to live an expensive vegan lifestyle. We need to hunt to eat. We have survived for thousands of years eating sustainably. We respect the animals that gave us food. Please do your research before calling Inuit murderers for trying to feed themselves, survive in the frozen arctic with warm clothes, and practising our tradition. A few vegan articles won't cover living in the arctic for thousands of years.Thread of fruit and vegetable prices in the Arctic
