To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The Esquimaux take some animals in traps, and by a very ingeniouscontrivance of this kind they caught two wolves at Winter Island. Itconsists of a small house built of ice, at one end of which a door, madeof the same plentiful material, is fitted to slide up and down in agroove; to the upper part of this a line is attached, and, passing overthe roof, is let down into the trap at the inner end, and there held byslipping an eye in the end of it over a peg of ice left for the purpose. Over the peg..., however, is previously placed a loose grummet, to whichthe bait is fastened, and a false roof placed over all to hide the line. The moment the animal drags at the bait, the grummet slips off the peg, bringing with it the line that held up the door, and this, falling down, closes the trap and secures him, A trap for birds is formed by building a house of snow just large enoughto contain one person, who closes himself up in it. On the top is left asmall aperture, through which the man thrusts one of his hands to securethe bird the moment he alights to take away a bait of meat laid besideit.
