Kazakh nomads have hunted with golden eagles near Mongolia's Altai Mountains for centuries. This unique tradition is documented by Palani Mohan, presenting a culture in danger. Hunters form a special bond with their eagles, capturing female pups from nests, nurturing them, and training them to hunt. The relationship, treated as a familial bond, lasts six to eight years before the eagle is released back into the wild. However, this tradition is fading, with younger generations seeking life in the city and a decline in the eagle population. Despite the annual Golden Eagle Festival, only 50-60 true hunters remain, making Mohan's book a crucial record of this vanishing culture.
