Incorrect. Some Eskimos may very well hunt whales, but to say most of them do is incorrect. Whale hunting has fallen in popularity and is governed by international laws making it very hard to hunt whales for a living. What % of the population of Eskimos hunt whales I do not know, but I do know that to say most of them is not correct.
CORRECT. most eskimos hunt whales along with seals, fish, polar bears and other animals!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
They hunt migrating whales in cracks in the ice, once harpooned they would drag the whale onto the ice using man power. They tended to hunt beluga and bowhead whales.

The Eskimos are expert hunters. They mainly depend on animals for their food. Their main hunting weapon, the harpoon is used for catching whales, large fish and seals.
The Inuit live too far north to hunt bison. They probably hunt caribou at times. However, seals, fish and whales are the main staples for the Inuit.
They were hunting whales because the whales had a lot of stuff they needed from the whales.
Yes
Yes and they still do.

the chinook tribe did hunt for gray whales, fin whales, sperm whales, blue whales, and humpbacks, and they use the blubber for candles, and the meat for eating, even though there are 80 species of whales. they even use the whale's oil for electricity I think in 1932.
The Inuits (Eskimos) would hunt whales and seals for food, fur...and...whatever else they could use really. Now, the majestic whale is endangered, because sadley some American/Indian/Asian/European people discovered they could make money, because of the whales blubber oil and stuff. So they hunted the whale, and didnt stop until its illegal; but they still hunt whales.

Inuits hunt whales in order to use their blubber.
