Horses graze in the mountain pasture in the Suusamyr Valley lies at 2500 meters above sea level in Kyrgyzstan's Tian Shan mountains 170 kilometres (100 miles) south of the capital Bishkek, Wednesday, August 10, 2022. Their milk is used to make kumis, a fermented drink popular in Central Asia that proponents say has health benefits. The grass and herbs lend flavor to the milk that locals draw from the mares in the fields where they graze. The milk then is left to ferment, or sometimes churned to promote fermentation, until it becomes mildly alcoholic. (Photo by Vladimir Voronin/AP Photo)
