Guy who's trying to protect snow leopards had killed few years back by a hit man sent by mining company. Entire murder process was audio recorded on his phone but no authority took action. He was fiercely defensive about preserving wild nature especially rare snow leopards and road blocking huge mining companies. He never gave up till his end. RIP
Is there any way I can support his work? Is there a memorial fund? Some way to hold the evil bastards that did this accountable? This breaks my heart, .
If the Mongolian government secured a 33% cut of the profits that means the rest is flowing into western coffers. There should be a way to hold the western companies accountable for the actions of their personnel. This needs to be elevated on social media and politic pressure needs to be brought to bear for those complicit in his death!
@@christopherhughes8402 I think what we could do is only to make people aware about the Rio Tinto athrocities. They might thought no one would know about what they did and do. The company bribed even an ex PM who now escaped to UK hiding from the court. They could easily bribe investigators to silent them, because there are billions dollars on account and they don't want to risk it. Especially when some crazy ecologist is trying to raise his voice.
A salute to the narrator - clear, calming and relaxing. A salute to TRACKS for this comprehensive coverage of the subject. Looking forward to more documentaries like this.
@Nirmal joshi Thank you! But I wouldn't call it "developing". Because in fact only a handful of fat cats are getting even wealthier, but Mongolia's economy and living standards of ordinary people are getting worse.
We don’t need to dig our land or kill our wild life to live in polluted city lifestyle. Those people and animals live as happy as ancestors before them if nobody borders them and change their environment .
@@terryb3790 Where did you get that false impression? He was only studying their behaviour and condition. The young man was devoted all his effort, knowledge and life to snow leopards whom he loved and was keen to protect. Sadly his life was taken by greedy wealthy persons in 2015. He was only 27.
thank you TRACKS for making this beautiful documentary film. Same thing is happening in Changthang region of Ladakh, India. The nomads are migrating as it is becoming increasingly difficult in the Himalayas due to climate change and border tension.
As an urban Mongol I watched this great documentary with mixed feelings: fascination and a deep frustration. It was nice and interesting to see herders living their everyday life and enjoying themselves and to see gorgeous animals and landscape. But witnessing the consequences of the greed of a bunch of politicians in collaboration with foreign mining companies ruthlessly taking sacred nature to destruction within less than a 10 year period makes me angry. They won't stop until the land and everything on and under it is completely ruined, will they? It's extremely sad that the life of the brave young biologist T. Lkhagvasumberel aka Sumberel, featured in the documentary was so abruptly and cruelly ended in hands of covetous capitalists and corrupt politicians. He was only 27 when was murdered in December 2015. Since then the authorities have been attempting to prove the obvious and unheard of before murder as a suicide.He was awarded "Helen Freeman Awards 2015" post-mortem. He had been chosen as one of the best researchers in action to save snow leopards. I hope now he is in heaven enjoying the company of his beloved snow leopard for whom he sacrificed his young life.
Its very sad both for the brave soul who fought for animal rights and sad for the future of the Mongolians if such greed should continue.What will happen to our beloved mother Earth,what would be the answer that we should give our future generations..It hurts to think.
You in the "developing world" have a chance to mitigate the environmental carnage that the "developed world" were too ignorant and too weak to do anything about until it was almost too late. There are murdered environmental activists in the "developed world" too.
This doc. dealt not only w/ the life of reindeer nomads but also that of the mining for gold & copper, the extinction of the rare big cat, snow leopard & the revival of Mongolian buddhism & so on ( btw, I enjoyed the camel race,,,,where else can you see such race?! ). All in all, this is so amazing, engrossing & spellbinding that I'm in great awe of the people such as cameramen, sound men ( w/ background music ), the rest of the crew members & an editor including a producer in this superlative documentary regarding the current Mongolia. My highest commendation & kudos to all of them. From Japan,,,,,,(01/12/22, Wed. night here)
Happy to watch such an amazing beauty of nature, always in love with its purity and majestic attraction. Feeling sad inside what we human have done with such precious gift from almighty, desperately dejected here for the threat to the magnificent big cat, its unbearable to lose such beauty. The miners please don't go further to its territory, let it live with pride.🙏
Although the countryside’s life is more harsh than city life. But I still prefer the countryside. The air is much cleaner & fresher than in the city. The countryside is also much quieter & peaceful. 😉😊
these nomadic mongolians have to be some of the toughest most resiliant humans alive today. i mean they work work work all day. battling the elements just to not freeze or starve. it is increadible. those two baby sheep in the yurt were soo adorable.
So sad for the guy who work for snow leopard live saving. He is killed. Ppl say he killed by some miner companies that canceled licence. He was very good guy and worked very hard. He actually gave all his heart for save snow leopard. Every mongolian ppl really proud of him that what he did. He was very educated and humble young man
I am a Karen ethnic of Myanmar. There is a original myth of our Karen people in Myanmar. The Karen originated in Mongolia and our ancestors migrated to Myanmar by passing through the " river of sand " ...we always assume that the river of sand meant the Gobi desert :)
I love all the 'hill tribes'! Beautiful way of life! So mega beautiful ,alle these old cultures! Makes me feel poor and empty as dutch man😒 most here lost there connection with mother earth and 'the Great spirit'! 😔 But that's changing now😏
Thank you for this wonderful video of a land half a world away ! Yes, progress is inevitable. The destructive costs are also inevitable ! The Earth weeps profusely. Trinidad & Tobago.
Just the same as how people of arabia in vast desert used to live, but reached an epic boom of economy and luxury, i am hoping the these amazing gobi desert mongolians will be billionaires in the coming future, greeting you from somaliland👊👊✊
🇬🇧 WONDERFUL! I have always been interested in the Gobi Desert area, such a vast & desolate place but also of great beauty. The language is like nothing ive ever heard before! It has a Russian part, a kind of Soft gutteral Dutch sound & a sound unique to its own. The people are very welcoming & friendly & it was good to hear about individual families like the Camel Hearder & his brother who worked in the mines & the big differences in their lives but the miner longs for his real home on the Plains like his brothers life even though hes paid 20 times more! Im devastated to learn that lovely young kind Zoologist whos life was dedicated to the preservation of the beautiful Snow Leopard. To know he was murdered because he denied the mining companies access to an area he Conserved to protect the Snow Leopard. It just goes to show that corruption in big business is everywhere on this Earth! Also corruption exists in the Law Enforcement & Police who refused to investigate the murder of that young man!! Corruption is everywhere now on our Earth which saddens me so much, its an evil that spoils every good & natural way of living in balance between man & the natural world. But i loved this documentary I enjoyed every minute Thank you so very much Regards 🇬🇧👧
Being from a Mongoloid race and being a Mongolian is two different things. Even in india the people with Nordic features live but they are very different from being a Norwegian...
Thank you so much I like the culture religion their convictions traditions mangolians beleviers Buddhism 🙏❤️🙏👏👏👏👏👏I like art culture civilization their traditions thank you so much Asia 🙏🙏
Wasn‘t aware that Rio Tinto is that active in the mining of Mongolian natural resources. In any case, this is a very informative and interesting documentary!
The young biologist had been killed, because he was against Mongolian companies who were licensed to dig and destroy the beautiful part of the Gobi including the territory of the snow leopards. Those companies mainly financed by the Chinese companies. He disappeared without a trace. He was from Northern Mongolia, which is called Khuvsgul, the 2nd freshwater lake in the world.
I wish whole Asia were good partnerships like Europe, so we could help other with resources. Look at when Australia had troubles with wildfire ,Europe and The US donate large amount of money and human resource to help them. I hope one day we understand that Asian are one people. Myself I see another Asian in Europe I see a brother… some Asian like Vietnamese or Chinese might not think the same.
I will praise You, O Lord, with my whole heart; I will tell of all Your marvelous works. I will be glad and rejoice in You; I will sing praise to Your name, O Most High. -Psalm 9:1-2
Love the documentary and the way of nomadic life of the Mongolians. I just keep thinking of how to help preserve the land and protect it from over exploited? How does one help prevent this? Also all those young lives going down the mines and risking their lives for copper and dollars.
@40:30 seems Mongolian arithmetic is very different from my maths if 1 is 100, then obviously 100 prayers is 1000 eh? That makes sense, with all great respect from one who has lived with these people lol. Pray for the world my friends. Xxx
livestock is important and essential for the people but they have to understand animals like snow leopard is entitled to live on earth too like humans.
@Stephania Villaluz Yes, the most herders don't mind if a snow leopard makes kills occasionally. Had you listened to what the old herder (in the documentary) said regarding this problem you would have had your answer.
Development and preservation of culture-traditions, wild life are not mutually exclusive. See India for example. Hopefully Mongolians would be able to balance these two sides...

It is not at all certain that he is protecting them! How exactly does he do that by revealing their location !?

the problem is these mines indirectly fund our urban lifestyle

Yes I really admire their history particularly militarily considering their population even in Genghis time
Mongol are tough Asian, even European claim that the Gheghis Khan were White man. They can’t stand that Asian were able to invade white man.

Thank you for this wonderful video of a land half a world away ! Yes, progress is inevitable. The destructive costs are also inevitable ! The Earth weeps profusely. Trinidad & Tobago.
No destructive costs should not be inevitable with enough wisdom and consideration for all but unfortunately greed is so overwhelming for many people
it probably can be done more carefully.
Interesting docu! Love from Nigeria

I have always been interested in the Gobi Desert area, such a vast & desolate place but also of great beauty.

It is a shame we still have not learnt how precious our wild animals are to us , until they are gone . SO SAD
