As the Arctic ice melts, countries have been laying claim on the world’s remaining 13% of undiscovered oil and 30% of undiscovered natural gas which has been estimated to be in the Arctic. Countries bordering the Arctic have each been working towards legalising their claim of the Arctic with undersea flag planting and deploying submarines to locate the oil and natural gas reserves. While in Siberia, locals have been hunting for mammoth tusks which have been frozen for thousands of years previously and are now fetching high prices in the China market. Scientists have lamented the tusk hunting and trade as studying these tusks could reveal valuable data about the mammoth.
