There was a celebration Saturday after whalers from Pangnirtung harvested a 14-metre bowhead near Kekerten Island. More than 20 people participated in the hunt, said Mark Kilabuk, office manager with the Pangnirtung Hunters and Trappers Organization. The hunters were still butchering the whale on Kekerten Island Monday afternoon. The meat will be shared with surrounding communities, Kilabuk said. (Photo courtesy of Laura Nauyuq)
