On the "fakeness" of nature documentaries

Wish I could find it now, but I saw the best episode of any nature show ever. No idea the name or the presenter involved.

Show in Greenland, it featured a guy going with a native Greenlander (one of the ones descended from Vikings) going with Caribou hunting.

BAM!

Caribou is down.

Greenlander explains to presenter, as he slits open the belly of the caribou that the locals will eat raw the chewed cud inside the stomach, and that’s it’s full of vitamins–very healthy salad.

So the presenter hesitantly takes a pinch and puts it in his mouth and chews.

“Ohmigod that is so gross!” says the local Greenlander.

lol.
