Tsaatan - Mongolia
Bayau Bulang, Tsaatan | Renchinkhumbe, Khovsgol | Mongolia, 2011
The Tsaatan rely on the reindeer for most, if not all, of their basic needs: milk, which is also used to make cheese; antlers, which they use to make tools; and first and foremost, transport. They do not use the reindeer for meat. This makes the indigenous group unique among reindeer-herding communities.
