The dogs that could stop Mongolian grasslands turning to desert

- The bankhar, a guardian dog, is being reintroduced to protect livestock from predators and remove herders’ incentive to keep more animals and kill predators.
Herd animals have tripled in number in recent years, causing overgrazing and trampling of the grass.

The samurai game has brought me here
they protec but they also attac
The video explains quite clearly how having an efficient shepherd dog like the bankhar allows herders to have a managable and sustainable size of sheep instead of having to resource to raising a large overheard to account for all the sheep they would lose. This means less land used to feed and sustain the sheep, hence the practice of using the dogs has a direct impact on conserving grassland.
Mongolian language is so calming and beautiful
Yaaa l am Mongolia
So nice how the dogs are treated humanely
@cellee26 hol up

Correction: "Tsushima"
Called me out 🤣
The dogs scare away sand. That's how they stop the grassland from turning into desert.
Axe2TheMax .. wait is this sarcasm or real??? Sry, I’m confused
Sounds legit 🤷♀️

@@bonjuru2529 you are either a kid or someone extremely naive to think dogs can scare deserts.
So how do they help in turning into grasslands?
Hrmmmm yeap, I been wondering about that.
I believe they prevent the overgrazing from the livestock
@@ky-to No, it's said the dog only to protect and prevent the livestock to be eaten by predators.
Livestock numbers are increased in order to compensate for losses to predators, weather, etc. The dogs are meant to protect livestock from predators.
@@MsFancia The goats were keep being eaten by predators so the herders compensate it by having larger amount of goat which causes an overgrazing to the land. Having the dogs protect the herd helps it maintain its population.
To all those who are wondering why these dogs would help to prevent desertification, herders used to ride horse while herding. The grasslands can grow back from horse tracks pretty fast. It also limits the radius of each herder's movement.
However, almost all modern herders use vehicles like motorcycles to herd. Their tracks were much more detrimental to the grassland, let along the pollutions along the way. They also tend to cover longer routes due to pressure for more grass and improving mobility. In this case, herding dogs are actually really nice for both the environment and the herders themselves. Humans no longer need to spend as much time moving the stocks around, and the grassland has less pressure for exceeding carrying capacity and can regenerate faster.
It also helps herders not to have large herds to make up for any losses by wild animal attacks. Too many goats in one area strips the land of grass.
How is no one taling about how beautiful these dogs are? They have doberman and rottweiler colors but they have the fur and they are the size of saint Bernard's or other similar dogs. They are so gorgeous!😍👍🏾😭😫💖💖💖😍🙂
google bankhar puppies
This reminds me of the Mongolian boy singing 'Mother in the Dream' (??) on China's Got Talent years ago. His dream was to create a substance that could turn any place into green grassland! Such a beautiful place, and he had me in tears when he sung.
As far as i understood from the video, dogs act as herd protectors. I still don't get how they can prevent overgrazing so as to turn the deserts to grasslands.... 🤔🤔
exactly！！！
From what I understood, dogs as protectors of herd practice was stopped for a while, during those times herders use other means to protect the herd and increase the herd's population to cover the losses, and this causes overgrazing. So returning the dog as protector may reduce overgrazing because there is no need to increase the herd's population.
Agriculture use alot of water redirecting water cause lack of water in the grassland... Which cause the grass to die... Chase some horse on a wide area doesn't
Same
Man eat goat. Dog protect goat, thus dog will eat the man. Without human, forest will regrowrh. Make sense.
So much for the delusion of not needing Earth or old ways any more. A RETURN TO THE NATURAL TO SAVE US
I’m seeing this type of dog for first time. Incredible world.
I'm here to make sure those dogs who keep attacking me in Ghost of Tushima are real .
Imagine how Peta would have portrayed the video 😂
"this is abuse the dogs are saving the lands"
Useless PETA, they don't understand how it works, suing on small farmers who raise their animals like their family members and they never talk anything about luxury leather brands.
It feels like societies these days often have to give up their traditions to survive. It's amazing to see these nomads turn to tradition for their survival.
Собаки-огонь! Невозможно наглядеться, правда. Эта роскошная шерсть, мощные лапы, крупное тело-удивительое сочетание! Представлены во всей красе, славные псы! Удачи, здоровья, успехов! Спасибо за видео🤘
They are so cute. Like combination of Rottweiler and Japanese Spitz. 😍
True 😁😁😁
you should look at them puppies lol
nope its special breed only in Mongolia name is Mongol nokhoi (bankhar)
Protection of grassland environment
is also essential requirement.It is also necessary to establish a wide
network of volunteers to monitor
health,medical treatment and the
visits to observe donated dogs and
treatment given to them through
record,registers,and data entries,each dog numbered and listed.This will qualify the project
progress.Prizes for best donee owners as well as rules and terms
can also be fixed for this aspect
This is my humble suggestion.
Best of Luck for this project to save
and preserve Mongolian native dogs
Love and happiness to all in this
project from a doglover and dogowner from Bharat
That's amazing! I found out about these dogs playing Ghost of Tsushima! I wanna have one Bankhar one day! 😎
Yes me too, i killed so many dogs, if you know what I mean!! 😉😂
Das sind Hunde für kalte Gebiete. Nur wenn du in der Kälte wohnst und mit den Schafen wanderst. Ansonstenist es Tierquälerei.
Dogs and people, people and dogs fell in love with each other thousands of years ago and will always be part of each other’s existence.
I talked about this in my animal science class, but it was in the desert and they made grass grow back somehow by keeping up grazing or something
I'm a simple man I see a video about dogs I click fast
Who is Mongolian here?
🙋♀️
XAngela me here xd
Bi mongol oke
Me but half japanese half chinese

These dogs look exactly like Tibetan Mastiff's.
Yes they are quite similar. Because they are closely related. In fact we call Tibetan mastiff Tibetan bankhar just like bankhar. But there are quite different. The face is slimmer and the body is not as big . And the they shed because Mongolia has 4 seasons so in the summer they shed to cool off . And the vocal range is quite different. And bankhar is very old breed. It's believed to be originated from Indian black wolves around 12000 years ago . But only 2 or 3thousand years ago it took it's final form
And there are 4 sub species of bankha .I love the taigan bankhar. They are slim tall fast . Because they live in eastern side if Mongolia where it's endless steppe . And the steppe is super dangerous. Because its so flat its like some desert.
*Who would win*
A herd of goats or
One Bankhar Doggo
I would have been interested to know whether they actively train the dogs to attack predators or whether say a fox would just keep away seeing the large dogs with the herd. I'm English and I know that certain breeds (e.g. Border Collies) have a herding instinct and even untrained pets naturally try to round up sheep so the herding bit is probably fairly easy.
They don't train. It is natural instict of this dogs.
@@tekubayar1937 Thank you for your reply. That is interesting to know.
3:33
It sounds like a child lol
Seriously, what's the soundtrack to this video, this music is amazibgt
They look exactly like Himalayan Sheepdog that is found in Nepal
Yes because all of them are mountain dogs.
Как же я хочу Банхара!! Счастливые вы, что у вас такое счастье есть❤️❤️❤️
It's all Mongolian until the music goes full western on us for a minute
what
Gorgeous dogs
Ghost of tsushima dog
Gosh, what an interesting story! 🐕🐕🐕 I'm looking forward to telling my husband about it when we're trapped in the car on vacation and we're actually listening to each other 😁
These are the same dogs Chinggis Khan once was afraid of. Ok, so he was a boy. But still.....lol :))
these dogs are beautiful 😍
They're 75% floof and only 25% dog.
Thank you for choosing the right mongolian song for background music.
I'm from Mongolia 🇲🇳
Cute dogs. I am from Germany
0:25, now that's a kennel.
I wish to get 1 of this dog, huhu
Beautiful dogs, but if you're still breeding large herds, they're not going to be helpful in restoring the grassland.
Ang cute Naman ng mga doggo na Yan
It is very important to protect the useful herd dog propeties and not to go for looks. In most countries in Eastern Europe and Eurasia herd dogs went through standardizations that just were for optics and properties for work got lost.
Richtig.
Me that nearly got shredded by one of the hybrids of these doggos here in Mongolia im Mongolian-American and coming here the dogs are terrifying i was scared of the ones that dont attack you in America
How do I join to help? I want to go.
So i missed how the dogs stop it becoming a desert...
I know this dog after GHOST OF TSUSHIMA.
I need one too
2:08 what a lot of demand !!
Do not blame on China for the overpopulation of sheep in Mongolia. People from US buy cashmere as well. It’s the herders that want to make more money by raising more sheep
@@zerlinazeng4064 i dont blame anyone..
i just said what a lot of demand !!
no need to make my comment/statement to blame one side or another..
and stop dragging US or other country to this topic of my comment !!
If you're gonna have dogs, you better be having big penns like this so they're not suffocating in tiny cages
The first 20 seconds sounded like Free Tibet
How???
Cute dog..
Hope to see luscious green grass in deserts soon..
Yeah just wait a century or two.... Or 10
Not really that often we hear stuff about Mongolia a place with the craziest history and now an average country
My dad at first thought they were Navajo people
Lol. No they Mongolian, descendants of Chingiss Khan. They never lived in America.
When you look closer you see Mongolian have Asian eyes. Navajo have round eyes. There the difference. They share very high cheekbones. But thier faces are Asians.
If only you where here you'll understand
But why he was thinking that? Why so many thinking that in America? They have nothing similar, exempt the thick straight black hair, and cheekbones. But other then that they are 100% ASIAN looking. Small tiny Asia nose, Asian eyes, Navajo don't have. Navajo have bigger noses and round double eyelid eyes.
Let me say it again if only you were here
Beautiful dogs...
I think the title of the video should be "Bankbar dogs are useful to Mongolian herders" or something similar.
Wrong title how could they save lands from turning deserts.
This is awesome
Now I feel bad after playing Ghost of tsushima.
Beauiful dogs! How can I get one?
Woow thats great
nice dog
Amazing
This is bear not dog lol
This is Logan's Dog ?

My mate has a Tibetan mastiff these look real similar, are they related?
All mountain dogs are similar.
Looks very similar to Tibetan mastiff
Farzin Irani actually it’s Tibetan mastiff but it’s Mongolian dog called bankhar but i don’t see difference between them
I know why you're here.
Great.
I want some and i will send it to sahara dessert maybe it could help

This is tebetan masstiff?
The dogz fate rests with you, but are you helping to minimise there abuse and also truly help them after TV?
In dog we trust
Hello there, we have a Leonberger girl at our little farm in Hungary and looking for a Mongolian Bankhar puppy or couple - is there a chance to get one and if so how? Thank you :-)
Why is the LITERALLY NO trees???
Gobi desert.
YEAH PUPPIES
I am a cat man but dogs are animals that needs to be preserved
Lots of dogs died due to roadkill and starvation just like cats
And yeah Ghost of Tsushima brought me here
I need one dog of this breed, how and where from I get? Suggest plzzz
hello, i wish you are ok, how can i contact you?
Return to nomad Glory to Mongolia
Ah yes ghost of tsushima
Desert is like the history... Fascinating to look at but a really bad place to live with.... Really bad, that I know all these project are lies from getting the grassland back...
Ye bankr chahiye apko
they are looking like Tibetan mastiff, are those monk bring them to Mongolia from Tibet?
probably the opposite. they all came from sibiria (the curved tails made experts suggest they grow so to avoid thick snow).
I have Mongolian Dog and powerful message bodybuilder pit bull puppies
Aydi not Aidi , the name came from Amazigh culture Aydi means Dog .
Look like tibetian mastiff
