This film tells the extraordinary story of an ambitious international scientific endeavor—the revival of Eurasia’s majestic Ice Age giants: muskoxen and bison. After vanishing alongside mammoths in the Pleistocene epoch, these iconic animals have been reintroduced to their ancestral homelands.

Why Yakutiya?
Yakutiya is a land where the ancient bond between humans and nature endures. Here, generations have preserved sacred traditions of reverence for the natural world—and where scientists are now turning the tide for biodiversity. This unique fusion of cultural wisdom and cutting-edge conservation has made Yakutiya the proving ground for the return of bison and muskoxen to their rightful home.
