The Tuvans were the first inhabitants of Altai, a mountain range that peaks at 4,300 metres. Today, there are only 2,000 Tuvans left. The elders fear their people will one day disappear.

Having become marginalised, the Tuvans are one of the country’s poorest minorities. They make a living mainly from yak breeding. They are also the region’s last shamanists.
