@crossingthethreshold Some of the people who own these yurts bring animals, but I’m not sure if they bring all of their animals, as I imagine this yurt camp gets most of their money from tourists who stay the night. As far as I know, there aren’t any (or there are only very few) full-time nomadic herders in Kyrgyzstan. The typical practice is to take animals to summer pastures (jailoo) or otherwise higher elevations in the summer, and then bring them (closer to) home in winter. Most Kyrgyz people have a house to live in now and only stay in yurts when they are with their animals in the jailoo (particularly when the jailoo is a far drive from their permanent home and makes commuting a waste of time and money)
