Eagle Hunter Olympics

...each fluffed-up fur coat carries an authority of eagle hunting mastery.

Amongst Mongolia’s western steppes, high on the Altai, you find the warm, welcoming community of Golden Eagle Hunters.

Each year hunters gather to pit their mastery against one another at the Olympics for Eagle Hunters.

The friendly event brings together community elders and caused the rebirth of their Kazakh-infussed tradition of hunting with golden eagles.
