Gathering and Releasing Animals : Reindeer Herd Control Activities of the Indigenous Peoples of the Verkhoyansky Region, Siberia
Arctic Anthropologists have conducted theoretical studies in orderto understand methods of reindeer herd control in Siberia. However, littleis known about how herders actually manage herds of reindeer in pastureon a day-to-day basis. Based on data collected through fieldwork in NorthernYakutia, Sibe...

The generalprinciple of herd control in this case study is that herders allow a partof the herd (riding reindeer) to supervise and lead (drive) the other animals.The different human attitudes to animals in herding activities result in a dualstructure of the herd, which appears to maintain a homeostatic spatial extensionbetween animals and humans. It also corresponds to the herders' systemof reindeer classification. Herders' gathering and releasing are crucial herdingactivities which enable a space to be appropriated where livestock can befreely pastured. ...
