Camels Begin Annual Winter Migration in Inner Mongolia Desert

In the vast Badain Jaran Desert of the Chinese mainland's Inner Mongolia, herders have embarked on their annual winter migration to guide camels to safe winter pastures.

Riding motorcycles through rolling dunes, these dedicated herders lead the camels on a journey spanning over 10 days. This remarkable migration has recently attracted photographers eager to capture the grand spectacle.

Each spring and summer, herders release the camels into the desert when the weather is favorable. As winter approaches, they drive the camels out of the desert and into designated winter pastures, ensuring their safety throughout the cold season.
