Kazakh youth in fox hat inside a ger, Western Mongolia

---

The Kazakh tribesmen of Western Mongolia (in the Olgii area), live in gers and often tend herds of goats and sheep with the occasional cow. They train golden eagles to hunt for food and furs, and they compete with each other in the fall at the famous eagle festival in Olgii where Kazakh eagle trainers come from far and wide to compete with their birds. This image of a youth was taken inside a ger where he was seated in front of the colorful wall hangings, wearing a fox hat ad a sheep skin coat.
