Dječak lovi ribu kroz rupu u ledu /Kid gone fishing <strong>at</strong> the ice edgeKitovi su čest prizor / See whales is frequently scene48Copyright © Filippo Barbanera / GTopposed to all sorts of ski-vehicles, dogs will never stopand fail, unless you forget to feed them.WildlifeAnimals living on Greenland are numerous and exotic,much like their motherland. You can see whales justby standing on the street, even from your hotel roomwindow. During l<strong>at</strong>e summer and early fall whales swimclose to the shore and sometimes they’re even seen inports. Still, the best way to see whales is on the opensea. When you sail along the shore on a cruise ship thecaptain will stop the bo<strong>at</strong> to make it easier for the passengersto w<strong>at</strong>ch those huge mammals. There are manydifferent kinds of whales in Greenland’s w<strong>at</strong>ers, but thelargest two are Blue Whale and Fin Whale. Also interestingare the seals, an estim<strong>at</strong>ed 2 million are living by theisland w<strong>at</strong>ers. Most of the tourists do not wait long for theirfirst encounter <strong>with</strong> Greenland animal, because here livemusk oxen, polar bears, moose, wolves and many smalleranimals and birds.Northern LightsNorthern Lights are an exceptional phenomenon th<strong>at</strong>forms when charged protons and electrons emitted fromthe sun enter the Earth’s <strong>at</strong>mosphere and magnetic field.When protons and electrons go back to molecules in the<strong>at</strong>mosphere, they cre<strong>at</strong>e polar lights of different colors.Near to the Greenland town of Kangerlussuaq, there isscientific st<strong>at</strong>ion for researching Northern Lights. Winterdark becomes midnight sun and becomes equally fascin<strong>at</strong>ing.During the week, the sun never rises abovehorizon, the landscape is completely white, while stars,moon and Northern Lights give light illumin<strong>at</strong>e the snow.It’s been said th<strong>at</strong> the Northern Lights are like a beautifuldream th<strong>at</strong> never ends.Culture and HistoryGreenlanders are people th<strong>at</strong> have never started a warnor took part in any. They are an exceptionally peacefuln<strong>at</strong>ion and people show extreme openness to visitors. Then<strong>at</strong>ion consists of Inuit people, emigrants from Denmarkand other countries. 20 percent of them are born outsideof Greenland. Fishing seals, fish and whales is the main activityand makes up 95% of the total export industry and isa main source of income for 1/5 of the popul<strong>at</strong>ion. ManyInuit people, often called Eskimos, make their own kayaksfor fishing and transport<strong>at</strong>ion. Culture and tradition havealways been valued, so today in South Greenland wecan find well preserved ruins from Viking times (from 1000years ago) and also the ruins of the first Christian churchin the North American continent. Music and the<strong>at</strong>re arebased on the myths and sagas passed on in modern formand are very popular. One of the local <strong>at</strong>tractions andtoday’s souvenirs are the Tupilaks, little grotesque figurinesmade of walrus teeth and moose horns. Many artiststoday make them in various shapes and <strong>with</strong> differentpersonalities. Because of today’s growing demand fordrinking w<strong>at</strong>er Greenland’s business people have comeup <strong>with</strong> the idea of selling w<strong>at</strong>er from Greenland and thearctic glaciers. Market research has shown th<strong>at</strong> Japaneseand Americans show special interest in clean and originalw<strong>at</strong>er from this island. Therefore, Greenlanders havedecided to brand and trademark their w<strong>at</strong>er in order to

In general,drinking w<strong>at</strong>er is Greenland’s most important resourceand today they are leaders in exporting ice and icecubes. Many believe th<strong>at</strong> the business of selling fountainw<strong>at</strong>er will become even more profitable.Bearing the brunt of gre<strong>at</strong> changesNumerous clim<strong>at</strong>e changes are c<strong>at</strong>ching up on the landof snow, icebergs and wild animals. Endless areas of eternalice are speedily melting. People in small villages previouslyused to scenes of slow and lazy iceberg slides, haverecently witnessed their surroundings to be full of flo<strong>at</strong>ingpieces of ice and small icebergs. Although icebergs arestill an astounding site, popul<strong>at</strong>ion has a hard time crossingthe bay. Dog sleds th<strong>at</strong> used to drag sleighs all upto the middle of the bay, where the best and most abundantfish are found, now are not secure anymore and theice gets thinner each winter. Because of new changesmany are forced to change their habits and find newways of life.How did Greenland looked before the winterResearchers from University in Copenhagen are studyingDNA and other genetic m<strong>at</strong>erial in order to find out inform<strong>at</strong>ionon first people to inhabit Greenland. Legendhas it th<strong>at</strong> a Scandinavian, Erik the Red discoveredGreenland after he was expelled from Iceland, butaccording to the new research the island was inhabitedeven 4500 years before this event. In order to studygenes, genetics, diseases and migr<strong>at</strong>ion trends, researchersare studying prehistoric skeletons. By Isol<strong>at</strong>ing DNAsamples, they have learned th<strong>at</strong> various insects andbutterflies lived in thick juniper and pine woods, even800,000 years ago. Also, they managed to prove th<strong>at</strong>clim<strong>at</strong>e of South Greenland, today covered in ice thickerthan 2 kilometers, used to be much warmer and thearea used to be covered in dense woods. Greenlandoffers beautiful moments for all those in love <strong>with</strong> winter,adrenalin sports and life away from modern civiliz<strong>at</strong>ion.It fascin<strong>at</strong>es and brings you close to some of the largestsea animals, it scares and raises the pulse by encounters<strong>with</strong> glaciers, it mellows and seduces by gazing <strong>at</strong> NorthernLights. The cold you first experience when you getthere disappears very quickly when meeting peacefulGreenlanders and the whole island truly looks like onebig miracle of n<strong>at</strong>ure.49
