While most seafood is for local comsumption, salmon roes and caviar are some of the major exports of the country. Other locally consumpted wild animals are reindeers and elks. Domesticated horse meat is almost exclusively eaten as kotbullars, while some Mongols do drink fermented horse milk called Airag. The more exotic food in Takasia is the national animal otter, which is usually roasted after skinned for fur.
