Eagle hunting, one of the most dramatic and primal relationships
between man and beast, is alive and well in the Altai Mountains
which run from Siberia in Russia down to Mongolia’s Gobi Desert.
One of the world’s last true wildernesses. Eagle hunting is one of
the endangered cultural traditions in the world today listed by
UNESCO as a living cultural heritage in 2010. There are only about
70 traditional eagle hunters left in the world.
