(230113) -- GENHE, Jan. 13, 2023 (Xinhua) -- Dalinma, Juele's cousin, cooks roasted meat for dinner in a traditional Ewenki tent at a temporary herding station at the Jinhe forest range near Genhe City, north China's Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, Jan. 11, 2023. Every two or three days, Juele Bulituotian will head for the Jinhe forest range about 80 kilometers from Genhe City. That's where the 39-year-old Aoluguya Ewenki herder, wearing a traditional fur coat, will find his foraging reindeer. Instead of keeping reindeer in a barn, Ewenki herders let the animals live in the forest and check on them every couple of days. Juele owns over 60 reindeer. He will call his reindeer in the Ewenki language and wait for his reindeer to respond. To him, the jingles of deer bells sound like heaven, which mean his reindeer are around, safe and sound. "I need to make sure my reindeer are not too far away, nor threatened by the predators in the forest." said Juele. The Aoluguya Ewenki people, known as "the last
