""Another group of current hunter-gatherers that reside in the interior of Alaska are known as the Koyukon. Their ideology is based upon the conservation of the environment and respect for all of its inhabitants. According to Nelson, 'Strong sanctions apply to killing animals or plants and leaving them unused. Meat is carefully butchered and stored where it will not spoil or be defiled by scavengers, and the fullest possible use is made of it to avoid offending the animal’s spirit' (p. 219). The Koyukon never take more than they believe they can use at one time. According to Koyukon beliefs, not abiding by these standards can lead to bad luck, illness or death of the offender (Nelson, p.219). The spiritual beliefs of the Koyukon contain another lesson that urgently needs to be understood by all: Death will befall humanity if we continue to plunder and pollute the planet at our current rate." [Naciente, p.122]"

  • Oppose until the issue is addressed properly. These should be discussed at a centralized location.
There was a discussion once on whether the ethnicity should have precedence for the name, and it was decided it shouldn't. That could be revisited. But it really should be one discussion on the principle, not thousands of separate discussions at every ethnicity in the world over whether it should be at "X", "Xs", or "X people". — kwami (talk) 12:38, 20 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
