Reindeer Husbandry In Tromso, Norway
An interior view of a ''lavvu,'' or conical tent, is being shown at a Sami reindeer husbandry farm in Tromso, Norway, on January 9, 2024. Reindeer husbandry is being practiced as a traditional activity and remains an integral part of Sami culture, the indigenous people of the region. These reindeer farms, known as ''siidas'' in the Sami language, are playing an important role in the preservation of the traditional Sami culture and way of life. Reindeer farms in and around Tromso are typically located in areas where reindeer are grazing freely for part of the year. The Sami are using reindeer as a valuable source of meat, milk, and hides, and are conducting reindeer husbandry in accordance with traditional and sustainable practices.
