Reindeer Husbandry In Tromso, Norway

A Sami shepherdess is looking after herds of Norwegian domestic reindeer (Rangifer tarandus tarandus) that are grazing at dawn on the plains of a Sami farm in Tromso, Norway, on January 9, 2024. Reindeer husbandry is a traditional activity and an integral part of Sami culture, which is indigenous to the region. These reindeer farms, known as ''siidas'' in the Sami language, are important for preserving the traditional Sami culture and way of life. Reindeer farms in and around Tromso are often situated in areas where reindeer can graze freely for part of the year. The Sami value reindeer as a source of meat, milk, and hides, and they carry out reindeer husbandry in accordance with traditional and sustainable practices. (Photo by Jorge Mantilla/NurPhoto)
