Reindeer Husbandry In Tromso, Norway

A panoramic view is showing a ''lavvu,'' or conical tent, on a Sami reindeer farm in Tromso, Norway, on January 9, 2024. The Sami people, who are indigenous to the region, are practicing reindeer husbandry, a traditional activity that is an integral part of their culture. These reindeer farms, known as ''siidas'' in the Sami language, play a crucial role in preserving the traditional Sami culture and way of life. Located in and around Tromso, the farms are situated in areas where reindeer can graze freely for part of the year. The Sami value reindeer for their meat, milk, and hides, and they are managing reindeer husbandry in accordance with traditional and sustainable practices.
