Region, 2500 kilometers (about 1553 miles) northeast of Moscow, Russia.
2. It's a holiday celebrated annually in Russia's Yamal-Nenets
region in the Arctic.
For the indigenous nomadic Nenets people, Reindeer Herder's
Day offers a chance to show their prowess in wrestling, high
jumps and other traditional local sports, but, above all, in
reindeer races.
Some participants travelled hundreds of miles across the frozen
tundra to attend the competition in the northern Siberian region,
which has more than half of its territory above the Arctic Circle.
