The Nenets are the last nomadic people left in Russia, eeking out a precarious existence in an inhospitable autonomous district in North-West Siberia. They live mainly in the tundra, forest tundra and Northern taiga belt of the European and Western Siberian part of the Russian Federation. They form the largest indigenous group of the Russian North; are one of the world’s great reindeer herding peoples and have come to personify large scale tundra reindeer husbandry.
