These bittersweet images tell the incredible story of a photographer who spent time living with a remote tribe in Mongolia - who hunt with eagles. The tribe have used golden eagles to hunt prey during the bleak winter months for centuries, an extraordinary example of a relationship between humans and semi-wild animals. However, the ancient tradition is becoming rarer and these eagle hunters may very well be the LAST of their kind. There are an estimated 250 eagle hunters in Bayan which is located in the Altai Mountains, of western Mongolia.
