The sun rises as Noel Jr. Kaludjak skins the polar bear he shot early Nov. 7 outside Coral Harbour. Kaludjak had some help skinning the animal, from fellow hunter Darryl Nakoolak, right, while 12-year-old Sammy Bruce, left watches and learns. The Kivalliq community was allocated 10 tags for polar bear harvests this year. (PHOTO BY NOEL KALUDJAK)
