A naturalist describes the Eskimo seal hunt as a blend of observation and stealth. The hunter notes wind direction, stays leeward, and crawls within a quarter mile then 200 yards before lying prone to watch the seal. When the seal sleeps briefly, the hunter crawls closer, finally shooting with a bow and arrow.
