ESKMOS BY RHYS MAERE
WHAT DO THEY EAT • They eat seal,wale,fish,walrus,poler bears • combined with their more common diet of fish, seal, fish, lichen, squid, fish and fish means Eskimos smell very badly indeed.
What’s the weather like? • Unlike the South Pole, which is located on the Antarctic continent, the North Pole is located in the middle of the Arctic Ocean and is surrounded by Alaska and the countries of Canada, Greenland and Russia. The Arctic Ocean is about 4000 meters deep at the North Pole, and most areas are covered with 2-3 meter thick ice floes. Generally, temperatures during the winter months, when there is no sun, hover at -30° Celsius, whereas temperatures during the summer can be as high as 0° Celsius.
How do they communicate • Despite this Eskimos communicate by touching and licking noses. The only reasoning behind this is that the bright snow and white dazzling snow of the land that they live in has made many Eskimos blind.
What do they live in • The igloo is the most common symbol identified with Eskimos, yet most Eskimos don't live in what most people think an igloo is. • Igloo is simply the Eskimo word for "house." So, technically, most eskimos DO live in igloos, as they define them, but not as most people think of them. • Mainly through the use of cartoons, people have long thought that Eskimos live in the rounded icehouses in order to keep warm in the cold climates in which they live. This might have been true originally, but it's not true now. • Nowadays, Eskimos live in wood, stone, and even cement buildings. They have heating devices that keep them warm in the colder months.
