Examining human-animal relations among the reindeer hunting and herding
Dukha community in northern Mongolia, this book focuses on concepts such
as domestication and wildness from an indigenous perspective. By looking
into hunting rituals and herding techniques, the ethnography questions
the dynamics between people, domesticated reindeer, and wild animals. It
focuses on the role of the spirited landscape which embraces all living
creatures and acts as a unifying concept at the center of the human and
non-human relations.
