When I asked her about this, she said this to me: "The environment is very sensitive, so we have to learn to listen, which means people tend to be quiet. We have a special connection with reindeer; without them we could not have survived here for 10,000 years, because on the tundra nothing is grown. Reindeer give us everything: clothing, food, eating the stomach gives us much-needed minerals—we use every part. My grandmother made even her own soap with reindeer bones. We do not own them, instead we say that they are owned by the wind. We do not farm them because they are free-grazing animals who are meant to wander. We migrate with them. It is a colonial way to see animals as lesser. Animals are equal to people; they are our first priority. When they suffer, we suffer." Thank you, Madam Speaker.
