The Canadian government has never acknowledged that the sled dog slaughter took place, and records of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police from that time were,Air Max 360, some claim, destroyed by fire.
In the late 1990s the Makivik Corporation began holding meetings in several Inuit communities with memories of the slaughter. It soon came to appear that these were not just random events. At the time the government claimed the killings were to prevent a rabies epidemic and/or dogs running loose (it is almost impossible to keep these strong pulling dogs tethered). However, the destruction of their dogs denied heads of Inuit households their livelihood and plunged them into poverty.

Sled dog slaughter comes to light
According to the Canadian Eskimo Dog Association the numbers of purebreds dropped from 20,000 in the 1950s to perhaps 200 now. The site attributes this to various factors including an increase in snowmobile use leading to a lack of interest in perpetuating the breed. However, many Inuit see it the opposite way around. According to them, it was after the sled dog slaughter took place that they were encouraged to replace their teams with snowmobiles, which were not only less versatile but far beyond the reach of the average Inuit hunter of the time.
The alleged slaughter was documented in the 2005 film Echo of the Last Howl. At the premiere,Air Max 87, Inuit victims stepped up to the mic telling heartrending tales of dogs filing off dutifully to their slaughter or being cut down in front of their owners' eyes by Royal Canadian Mounted Police.

Known as Inuit Huskies or Eskimo dogs they bonded strongly with their owners, pulling sleds, sniffing out prey during the hunt,Air Max 1, and often saving lives by warning of thin ice or fending off enraged polar bears. "Dogs equaled life," according to
Because the affected communities were so remote and scattered, it was not until the 1990s that a pattern of sled dog slaughter emerged, indicating that these may have been more than isolated acts for the purpose of animal control.
