Food
When the Haida tribe needed food, they did not go the grocery store like us. They would hunt, fish and collect plants. In the summer they would eat elk, bear, salmon, even mountain goats. Food could be found in the forest and the ocean. The easiest way to hunt seals was to sneak up on the seal that was basking in the sun, then hit it the seal on the head with a club. The Haida cooked their food by using heated rocks inside cedar boxes or heated rocks inside baskets full of water. In the winter when food was not easily found, they would eat the foods they saved like dried salmon that they caught in the summer.
