Ep. 50 "MONGOLIAN BANKHAR DOG PROJECT" with Bruce Elfstrom
Description
Have you ever heard of the Mongolian Bankhar dog? These ancient landrace herding dogs date back to the time of Genghis Khan and Marco Polo. Renowned for their fierce loyalty and guardian instincts, they are more than just beautiful animals; they are living pieces of history. In this episode, we are joined by Bruce Elfstom of the Mongolian Bankhar Dog Project, whose mission is to revive the traditional use of these incredible dogs to protect livestock, combat desertification of the Mongolian Grassland Steppe, and preserve centuries-old Mongolian culture.
Bruce's passion is infectious, the story is captivating, and the dogs? They’re simply stunning. This episode is not just about dogs—it’s about culture, conservation, and a truly unique partnership between humans and their four-legged guardians. Don’t miss it!
