A wonderful look from The Human Planet series of the people of Kangiqsujuaq in Canada who go to great lengths to add variety to their diet of seal meat by venturing under the sea ice during the extreme low tides of the spring equinox to gather mussels. This is a deadly serious race against time as they have less than half an hour to search these temporary caverns before the tide rushes back in. A look-out keeps watch for the returning tide, but warning shouts can’t be too loud in case the echoes bring down the ice.
