Hunting with Eagles

Date:

Hunting with eagles is a traditional form of falconry found throughout the Eurasian steppe, practiced by Kazakh and Kyrgyz people in contemporary Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan, as well as Diasporas in Bayan-Olgii, Mongolia, and Xinjiang, China.

Kazakhs (Altaic Kazakhs or Altai-Kazakhs) living in Bayan-Olgii Province of Mongolia continue to hunt with eagles today. There are an estimated 250 eagle hunters in the Western Mongolian province. Their falconry custom, so-called ‘horse-riding eagle falconry’, is unique in practice only with trained Golden Eagle on horseback.

In the video we look at these magnificent eagles and their trainers – the falconers.
