遊牧 (yōboku) refers to a lifestyle characterized by the movement of people and their livestock from one place to another in search of pasture and water. This practice is commonly associated with various cultures, particularly among nomadic tribes in regions like Central Asia and the Arctic. The primary goal of 遊牧 is to adapt to the environment and seasonal changes, allowing herders to maintain their livelihoods. Livestock such as sheep, camels, and reindeer are often central to this way of life, providing food, clothing, and transportation for nomadic communities.
