3 or $400000.00 for been a little if any of that it's led us to pay special attention to the problem but if. we want to know what's happening to our reindeer populations but. when you put it down the closer you can hear the money. the 2 biologists say climate change but also human interventions are behind the steep decline in numbers one growing problem is competition between wild reindeer and herded reindeer. killing is on an expedition on the menu river which cuts through one of the main routes of migrating wild reindeer. in order to find out more about their migration patterns he wants to attach transmitter collars to as many specimens as he can catch. were the devices have been

1:52 pm
ones is growing. you spoke with world reindeer i've always been seen as rivals of domesticated hurts it's impossible to breed them where there are lots of wild ones where there are both populations herding is hard domesticated reindeer often run away and join the wild ones and they compete for grazing as a positive. food is becoming scarce even in the vast and undeveloped far north of russia. based on data from the tracking devices strategies to be developed to mitigate competition among the diverse populations to benefit all of them. but the changing climatic conditions are also a challenge in particular the rising temperatures. the herd of families and their reindeer continue their trek south to their winter quarters in the forests they still have a long way to go. as conditions change the risks they face are changing too
