  • GRE04.0379.xf1brw		(MODEL RELEASED IMAGE). The Madsen family on a day of dogsled travel. When the snow crust is hard enough to ensure that the dogs won’t break through, they can pull the half-ton weight of the sled for hours on end. On level ground, the animals pull at about the pace of a running human, but the sleds can whip down hills so fast that drivers must step on the brake at the rear of the sled to avoid running over their dogs. (Supporting image from the project Hungry Planet: What the World Eats.) /// The Madsen family of Cap Hope village, Greenland is one of the thirty families featured, with a weeks’ worth of food, in the book Hungry Planet: What the World Eats. The family consists of Emil Madsen, 40, his wife Erika, 26, and their children Abraham, 12, Martin, 9, and Belissa, 6. (Please refer to Hungry Planet book p. 144-145 for a family portrait [Image number GRE04.0001.xxf1rw] including a weeks’ worth of food, and the family’s detailed food list with total cost.)

  • Seal hunter Emil Madsen stops to look for prey (polar bears, seals, musk ox, and geese) while the dogs take the moment to rest near Cap Hope village, Greenland.  (Emil Madsen is featured in the book What I Eat: Around the World in 80 Diets.)  The caloric value of his typical day's worth of food in May was 6500 kcals. He is 40 years of age; 5 feet, 8.5 inches tall; and 170 pounds. Here he is looking for seals near the ice edge (a giant iceberg is in the open water in the background) The family has been traveling by dogsled for a good portion of the day. When the snow crust is hard enough to ensure that the dogs won't break through, they can pull the half-ton weight of the sled for hours on end. On level ground, the animals pull at about the pace of a running human, but the sleds can whip down hills so fast that drivers must step on the brake at the rear of the sled to avoid running over their dogs.

  • Seal hunter Emil Madsen shouts commands to his dogs as they try to get over a crack in the ice near Cap Hope Village in Greenland.  (Emil Madsen is featured in the book What I Eat: Around the World in 80 Diets.) Getting over these cracks can be very dangerous as there is always the very serious worry of falling in. In the spring this can be dangerous because the ice is breaking up and sometimes huge pieces break off and move out to sea. When the snow crust is hard enough to ensure that the dogs won't break through, they can pull the half-ton weight of the sled for hours on end. On level ground, the animals pull at about the pace of a running human, but the sleds can whip down hills so fast that drivers must step on the brake at the rear of the sled to avoid running over their dogs.
