Understanding the spiritual connection to the earth, the animals and the rhythm of the seasons was and still is a large part of what makes a good hunter. The white-tailed deer offered up food, clothing and housing to our First Nations' people for thousands of years, a sacrifice that never went unappreciated. Words were few as guidance, for hunting skills came from example.
New Tradition of Hunting series features the deer as seen through the eyes of a First Nation's artist.
