Law+&+Order

In the Inuit group, law and order are very important. The Inuit knew that the best way to stay alive was to always act in the best interest of the group. They treated all souls with respect. The animals that they hunted were hunted with different tools. Even when the animals were killed they were treated fairly. The Inuit did not let their dogs eat the bones of caribou. You might ask why did they go through all this trouble and don't get anything out of it. Well, the Inuit believed that everything had a soul. They thought that if a soul was mistreated it would come back from the dead to even up with the person who mistreated it. Some of the animals were dangerous to hunt on land, so they made special offerings to the animals spirits after the kill. The Inuit thought that the spirits would starve them as punishment for killing them. Today most Inuit follow different rules than they did before. Sometimes if someone breaks the law they will be banished to an island where nobody lives and are forced to live off the land. An example of this punishment is when three canadian inuit boys attacked and injured a man. The boys were not sent to jail but banished on an abandoned island. Which was probably hard on them since they had grown up with electricity. That is all I have to say about the law and order of Inuit groups. I got this information from Indigenous Peoples Inuit.
