\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tKok Boru is an ancient and popular equestrian sport among the Kyrgyz people and other nations of Asia. It is commonly known as \u201culak tartysh\u201d (goat pulling). Kok Boru is a unique combination of horse racing and a competitive game. Riders compete for a goat carcass\u2014success requires not only seizing it, but also maintaining control and ultimately placing it into the opponent\u2019s \u201ctaikazan\u201d (goal). The game is also widely played in Kazakhstan, regions of Russia (such as Altai and Bashkortostan), Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, Afghanistan, Pakistan, China, Turkey, and Mongolia.\nThe name \u201cKok Boru\u201d translates as \u201cgray wolf.\u201d In ancient times, there was a common form of wolf hunting in which a group of mounted riders pursued a wolf, caught it, and killed it using clubs. This method is notable because once a rider killed the wolf, he would place its carcass across his saddle, while the other riders attempted to take it from him. As they rode back toward their village, the pursuit naturally evolved into a game that later became known as Kok Boru.\nAccording to the rules of Kok Boru, each team consists of 12 riders and 12 horses, although only four players from each team are on the field at any one time. The game is played in three periods of twenty minutes each. The objective is to gain control of the goat carcass and score as many goals as possible by placing it into the opponent\u2019s taikazan.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
