There are various "rules" between humans and animals interactions among local people living in the mountains and grasslands of Central Eurasia. In particular, nomadic animal herders have accumulated vast knowledge for how to live together the five livestock (sheep, goats, cows, horses, and camels) in their traditional livelihood. In addition, there is also traditional ecological knowledge, which is used for survival from climatic disaster "dzud". In the past, wildlife hunting, such as horse riding eagle falconry by taming a large golden eagle, and hunting of herbivores, supported their lives. For sharing pastures and animal resources in their living spheres, what kind of contact, harmony, life exchange... have been made between humans and animals across Central Eurasia, in order to adapt to the harsh environment? In my research, I am exploring the environmental adaptation and unique strategies of humans and animals as a natural survivor, through the fieldwork based on disciplines of geography, ecological anthropology and animal ecology.
