When we were on holiday we were told Norweigians only hunt to eat, not for sport. I've heard this all the time from Anne when she lived here. She put someone down beautifully once when she lived here. She had photo's of her father hunting seal and this woman being nosy repremanded her about it being barbaric and cruel. Anne's reply was ' my father hunts to eat, what do you do after you have hunted a fox?'
Her father is able to shoot one seal, one Elk and has a limit on fish he can bring in and dry for the winter.

There is a photograph in Ola's house I asked him about. It was of his uncle (who used to own the house they live in) who had shot a polar bear in the 60's because it had come ashore where there was a working team. It was dangerous because it was looking for food. No one was allowed to do anything about it, unless it attacked you personally, then it could be shot. There was no food for it and it was ill, so Ola's uncle filled his pockets with raw meat and went for a walk.......
