What is the current status of the Inuit?

The current situation of the Inuit is that they live in the Arctic region, spreading inside and outside the Arctic Circle from Siberia and Alaska to Greenland, and residing in Greenland, the United States, Canada and Russia.

They have created a succession of scripts spelled in Latin and Slavic alphabets, and their housing consists of stone huts, log cabins, and igloos, with half of the house sunk into the ground and extremely low doorways.

They made their homes along the coast and hunted mainly sea mammals (RHOQUE, walrus, narwhal, and various types of whales) and land mammals (Canadian caribou, white bear, musk oxen, polar foxes, and polar bears) for food.

In the Arctic, where there is no grass, no trees, just bare rock, the Inuit have no firewood to cook their food, and also where there is a lack of vegetables and fruits, and where eating raw meat directly absorbs vitamins from the animal into the body.

If the meat is cooked, the vitamins will break down, and if you don't get the vitamins for a long time, you will get scurvy, and the Inuit will not be able to survive. Eating raw meat will not only help the Inuit to take in vitamins, but the digestion speed will also be slower, and therefore more calories can be stored.
