| Summary: | Abstract The original branch of nature management of the indigenous small-numbered peoples of the north is domestic reindeer herding. Despite all the natural prerequisites for the favourable development of this industry in the Arctic zone of the Krasnoyarsk Territory, reindeer husbandry is relatively poorly developed there. Historically, the fishing farms in Taimyr, for the production of wild reindeer of the largest Taimyr-Evenk population, are the main source of economic well-being of the indigenous population. Therefore, the study of the dynamics of this population and the ways of its rational use is a priority. This work is devoted to a review of the dynamics of the removal of wild reindeer of the Taimyr-Evenk population and the factors affecting it. In the context of the modern transformation of the Arctic ecosystems, a quite reasonable question arises: can commercial reindeer husbandry remain the guarantor of the economic stability of the indigenous and small-numbered peoples of Siberia as it was in the second half of the twentieth century? |
