Gambell, Alaska – For as long as many here can remember, hunters in this tiny village on St. Lawrence Island have managed to kill enough walruses to last through the brutal Arctic winter. After harvesting only 108 walruses this year, residents are scrambling to find alternate sources of food before winter sets in.

Unusually thick ice in the Bering Sea.

“The ice was so bad we couldn’t get out,” said Brian Aningayou. The 38-year-old hunter bagged only four walruses compared with his normal take of 20.
