Mongolia produces 48 percent of the total raw cashmere in the world. For centuries, Mongolian nomads have a long tradition of raising five kinds of livestock, including goats, in the vast territory and harsh climate, which resulted in four naturally occurring colors that nomads are able to obtain from their goats.
Mongolian goats have one of the warmest coats due to its extreme weathers. Temperatures through the seasons range between -40°C to 40°C, training these goats to grow the hardiest of wool.
