Far from the Alaskan mainland and close to Russia is Saint Lawrence Island, a remote land inhabited by the Siberian Yupik People. Here they still live off of a whale hunt, reindeer, walrus, and halibut (they have one store too).
The Natives have successfully managed to retain control of their land and keep it restricted from the rest of America and the outside world. Join me as we meet the locals and learn about the Siberian Yupik people who have endured their harsh climate and retained some of their ways of life for thousands of years.

The guy making up stories like the one of the stegosaurus lol. When I was a kid in a small town I used to invent stories about everything too. The stuff we do when we haven't internet or cable television, damn haha.
Peter, you should consider visiting the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands. I lived there for almost 5 years and its' a very interesting part of "America"
extremely interesting community. i'm glad they let you in.
edit: i didn't know it was possible not to know what a stegosaurus is.
Thank you for this video. I felt like I was there. Very interesting. Cheers from Argentina.
What a magical place , unspoiled by modern development . Look forward to seeing more.
One place I'd never want to visit and darn sure would never want to live.
Nick. Man do I have stories about Nick
This youtuber is talented in kindness
Those peoples look like Chinese or Japanese
Amazing how I knew nothing about this island. I do believe these people have found their nirvana. Bless the people on this island.
Very interesting video waching in Wales ๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ท๓ ฌ๓ ณ๓ ฟ ๐ฌ๐ง
The sheriff is the right they/politics are making racism. I would love to see them hunt a whale.๐ฅฐ
This video made my day. Thank you so much,
Love Nick. He knows how to converse with the whites ๐
I'm just curious do the Ukrainians think of the natives? Do the Russians consider the natives within and around near by as you see. Imagine living there without help. Unbelievable. "The majority" comes 1st I forgot.
I really enjoyed watching this video. I liked listening to Sonny. Nick, the VPSO, got me with the whale bone when he said it was from a stegosaurus, lol. He was spot on with his comments about the lower 48 when talking about why he would not want to visit. I hope they are able to bring back the yearly celebration of their cultures with their Siberian Yupik neighbors.
They got game but there is a greater one.
Would be nice to see this on the mainland. Reserving land for native tribes as opposed to contracting out land to development companies.
i heard that russia and china are doing something with alaska,i just hope it is not with this beautiful island,stay safe out there and thanks for sharing,its amazing loooking
I want to live there
I got introduced to Peter's videos after his visit to my native Pakistan, and now I'm watching his visits to the remotest areas of Alaska. What a lucky guy he is.
very good thanks
These people live in a communist society.
hi @PeterSantello did you get any compass readings of sun sets and rises…????
Awesome interview thanks for the share.
This good kick out others
O wow I'm jealous. What great people and a a great place thank all of them from Wyo. Blessings to you for this . And blessings to all of them . Man what freedom for life.
Thank you!
so why did u throw the plastic bottle back on the ground ???
You are a gem. Thank you
OMG I just heard the other day that the Russians and Chinese are going to overtake an island between Alaska and Russia holy God
I'm with him stay out of it away from everyone we are dangerous especially in California
This island ought to be its own borough soon, because nothing is more important to the people of Savoonga and Saint Lawrence Island than the pursuit of self-identity.
