Did you Know? Mongolians have a festival dedicated to eagle hunting
Every year, the Golden Eagle Festival takes place over two days, honouring centuries of Kazakh heritage. It all starts with a horseback parade of eagle hunters flaunting their fancy hunting outfits and accoutrements. As the birds are released from a cliff and swoop down to land on the arms of the hunters below, the eagles are rated on their speed and agility. The guys show their bravery and horsemanship by participating in a number of traditional sports.
