A remnant of the Ice Age

This week on Hard Truths of Conservation, join Dan Cabela as he travels north to the barren landscape of Nunavut in search of a remnant of the last Ice Age --- the musk ox. For the people who share this region of Canada with them, they're an integral part of their culture. Dan participates in a scientific-sampling project to monitor the population's health, and get first-hand experience of the relationship between local people and this arctic icon. 

From there, he heads to the jungles of the Yucatán peninsula of Mexico and examines the impact over-harvesting and exploitation of natural resources have had on the area.
