From hunting in Siberia to poaching in the jungles of Myanmar, we explore the relationship between humans and wildlife.
In Siberia, wolves are killing reindeer by the thousands, pushing the government to create a bounty system to curtail the wolf population.
In 2017, roaming wolf packs were responsible for the killing of livestock, including 9,000 reindeer, costing the state $2.5m and pushing indigenous communities into poverty.
State-recognised Hunter Maxsimovic used to hunt sable, but since 2013 he has switched to full-time wolf hunting - not just for the money but also to protect a way of life.
