Dzud is a combination of perennial droughts and severe, snowy winters .
Many deaths, especially among malnourished female animals and their young, occur during the spring .
Thousands of families have lost over 70% of their entire herds.
Nomadic herding is so vital for resource-rich Mongolia ’s 3.3 million people.

Herders who lose their herds often migrate to cities like the capital, Ulaanbaatar , but find few opportunities for work.
Meanwhile, international aid has been “very insufficient,” said IFRC appeal launched in mid-March has not reached even 20% of its target of $6 million .
