Deer are also abundant in the fall, and we like to walk on the beaches and hills hunting. People still hunt seal for meat when possible. Bear are in the village vicinity from late spring through late fall, and can be a nuisance. No one hunts them for food anymore, although they may be killed for bothering homes or prepared fish. Our family owns 2 dog, Baron is a St Bernard and Cody is a Great Pyrenees.
Many families here have dogs.
I could ramble on for some time and continue to share experiences, but this should enable people to get a feel for Karluk. I look forward to communicating with people to share more information.
