  • Kickapoo Tribe by Jacob
    Kickapoo Tribe by Jacob Questions and answers: Where did the tribe live? Where do the people live now? The Kickapoo Indian people are from Michigan and in the area of Great Lakes Regions. Most Kickapoo people still live in Texas, Oklahoma and Kansas. What did they eat? The Kickapoo men hunted large animals like deer. They also eat com, cornbread call "'pugna" and planted squash and beans. What did they wear? The women wore wrap around skirts. Men wore breechcloths with leggings. What special ceremonies did they have? The Kickapoo people were very spiritual and connected with animals and they had special ceremonies when it came to hunting. A display of lighting and thunder, usually in early February signifies the beginning of the New Year and hence the cycle of the ceremonies. Some of the ceremonies would be hand drum, dancing and singing. What kind of homes did they build? The Kickapoo people made homes called wickiups and Indian brush shelters. 5 Interesting Facts of the Kickapoo People: 1. Story telling is very important to the Kickapoo Indian culture. 2. Kickapoo hunters & warriors used spears, clubs, bows and arrows to hunt for food. 3. Ho (pronounced like the English word Hoe) is a friendly greeting. 4. Kepilhcihi (pronounced Keh­pee­ehih­hih) means "thank you." 5. The Kickapoo children are just like us. They go to school, like to play and help around the house..

  • Our Society Lacks Consistently Defined Attitudes
    ‘OUR SOCIETY LACKS CONSISTENTLY DEFINED ATTITUDES TOWARDS THE BLACK BEAR’: THE HISTORY OF BLACK BEAR HUNTING AND MANAGEMENT IN ONTARIO, 1912-1987 by MICHAEL COMMITO, B.A. (HONS), M.A. McMaster University DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY (2015) Hamilton, Ontario (History) TITLE: ‘Our society lacks consistently defined attitudes towards the black bear’: The History of Black Bear Hunting and Management in Ontario, 1912-1987 AUTHOR: Michael Commito, B.A. (Hons) (Laurentian University), M.A. (Laurentian University) SUPERVISOR: Dr. Ken Cruikshank NUMBER OF PAGES: vii, 282 ii ABSTRACT What kind of animal was a black bear? Were black bears primarily pests, pets, furbearers or game animals? Farmers, conservationists, tourists, trappers, and hunters in early twentieth- century Ontario could not agree. Even as the century progressed, ideas about bears remained twisted and there was often very little consensus about what the animal represented. These varying perceptions complicated the efforts of the provincial Department of Game and Fisheries and its successor agencies, the Department of Lands and Forests and the Ministry of Natural Resources, to develop coherent bear management policies. Perceptions about black bears often conflicted and competed with one another and at no one time did they have a single meaning in Ontario. The image of Ontario’s black bears has been continuously negotiated as human values, attitudes, and policies have changed over time. As a result, because of various and often competing perspectives, the province’s bear management program, for most of the twentieth century, was very loose and haphazard because the animal had never been uniformly defined or valued. Examining the history of these ambiguous viewpoints towards the black bear in Ontario provides us with a snapshot of how culture intersects with our natural resources and may pose challenges for management.
