flag Savoonga, Alaska, builds reindeer meat industry to combat climate-driven hunting losses and boost food security.

flag Climate change is undermining traditional hunting in Savoonga, Alaska, as warming temperatures disrupt sea ice and alter animal migration, making walrus and whale hunts unreliable. flag In response, the village is developing a commercial reindeer meat industry, building a federally funded processing facility to slaughter reindeer four times a year and sell meat locally, with plans for broader distribution. flag The project, driven by local labor and partnerships, aims to improve food security and reduce dependence on expensive imported goods, offering a model for other Arctic communities facing similar climate challenges.
