ChineseToday | Young couple inherit Aoluguya Ewenki legacy in forests in north China
(240714) -- HULUN BUIR, July 14, 2024 Photo by Xinhua/ABACAPRESS.COM) -- An aerial drone photo taken on July 3, 2024 shows a view near the reindeer herding site in Jinhe Town of Genhe City, north China's Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. The Aoluguya Ewenki people, known as "the last hunting tribe in China," is the only ethnic minority group in China that raises reindeer. More than 20 years ago, they moved from the deep forests in the Dahinggan Mountains to Genhe City to resettle, but their tradition of herding reindeer was still preserved. Ayousha is one of the Aoluguya Ewenki people who spent her childhood in the deep forest with her family. In order to inherit the ethnic tradition of herding reindeer, Wu Qiming, Ayousha's husband and man of Han nationality, accompanied her back to the forest from the city in 2019, and together they set up a reindeer herding site in a forest in Jinhe Town. Both born in the 1990s, they are the youngest reindeer herders in the area now. The forests in the Dahinggan Mountains
