Dzud is a bad drought followed by a harsh cold winter.
So far this year, more than one million animals have been killed by the dzud in Mongolia.
In Mongolia it hasn’t rained since last July and this winter temperatures dropped to as low as -50C for days on end.
Snowfall covered up to 60% of the country and fell heavier than usual.
