Sometimes in the winter when temperatures can drop below 40 degrees celsius, Mr Shamurat likes playing on his traditional Dombra.
Mr Shamurat's youngest son is taking after his father. During the winter he attends school in a small village high up in the Altai mountains. During the weekends he has time to practice and perfect the art of eagle hunting with his father.
During the winter the eagle sleeps inside the yurt with the family. It would not survive the extreme cold outside.
