The impact of severe winter weather coupled with the lack of fodder continues to have a major impact on the livestock population of Mongolia’s herders. 550,000 animals have died from starvation and this number is expected to rise to 1.5 million animals in the next month. The IFRC launched an emergency appeal to provide emergency food parcels and cash support to vulnerable herder families.
