Pavel a Khudi Nenet from Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous District, Siberia, Russia. 2018

"The life of Nenets people in this area is based on following the reindeer as they move along ancient routes around the tundra. To survive the winter the reindeer eat a type of lichen known as reindeer moss, which may be covered in metres of snow. The Khudi Nenets brigade we visited have a herd of some 4,000 reindeer, with roughly 1,500 of them belonging to the Khudi Nenets themselves. The remaining 2,500 are owned by the ‘state farms’. If Khudi Nenets people slaughter a state-farm animal, its value is docked from their salary, but they are allowed to slaughter their own reindeer."

If you have a deep fascination with sled dog genetics, breed split, and sled breed histories this is a very interesting study.

I don't know if I'm the only one who notices this, but the Kyoshi islanders in Avatar: The Last Airbender are inspired by the Ainu people, who are the indigenous inhabitants of the northern regions of the Japanese archipelago, particularly Hokkaido, when it comes to indigenous representation, ATLA excels in showcasing lesser-known indigenous cultures, like they represent both indigenous arctic, native Siberian and indigenous Ainu culture, I barely see that in TV shows
