I felt like I was catching sight of a rare wild animal when I saw this tree while driving back to the small city of Ulaangom in Uvs, Mongolia, a province that rests in between Siberia and the Gobi Desert. We had just finished a week of journeying through frozen meadows and snowy mountains to the remote, isolated homes of nomadic herders facing a little-known natural disaster called “dzud.” A dzud is an emergency related to extreme weather conditions, and this year the cold is already dropping to below -50 C. This means animals freeze or starve because they can’t graze. In addition, warming weather and increased lack of rain in Mongolia leads to summer droughts, less hay for the animals, and livestock too skinny to endure the brutal winters. If a dzud hits this spring, thousands of animals can be lost in a day. For nomadic herders, this means they lose everything, and are often forced to join Mongolia’s growing exodus from the countryside to the city.
