YESTERDAY I READ THE 'TWO WERE LEFT' ABOUT ESKIMO AND HIS DOG HUSKY.
AND TODAY IN MY CLASS, DIANE AND MY CLASSMATES READ TOGETHER AGAIN.
THE STORY WAS VERY IMPRESSIVE TO ME. SO I'M GOING TO ADD ESKIMO AND HIS DOG HUSKY'S PICTURE.
ESKIMOS ARE INDIGENOUS PEOPLE WHO HAVE TRADITIONALLY INHABITED THE CIRCUMPOLAR REGIOM FROM EASTERN SIBERIA, ACROSS ALASKA AND CANADA, AND GREENLAND.
HUSKY IS A GENERAL TERM FOR SEVERAL BREEDS OF DOGS USED AS SLED DOGS. HUSKIES WERE ORIGINALLY USED AS SLED DOGS IN NORTHERN REGIONS BUT ARE NOW ALSO KEPT AS PETS. THE WORD "HUSKY" IS A CORRUPTION OF THE DEROGATIVE TERM "ESKIE", ALSO GIVEN TO THE ESKIMO TRIBES THAT CAME INTO CONTACE WITH EUROPEANS WHO MADE EARLY EXPEDITIONS INTO THEIR LANDS. THE MOST COMMON HUSKIES ARE THE SIBERIAN HUSKY AND THE ALASKAN HUSKY.
