Pastoral livestock husbandry in Mongolia have suffered from three consecutive years of Dzud, since 1999. The paper examines the Dzud recovery condition among nomads and clarifies the process of recovery. Based on interviews with nomads from a Dzud affected area, the research revealed the change of the livestock composition, the changes of the economic value of livestock, and the tendency of moving to settlement areas among young members of herder families and an increase of education expenses. These changes show that in the Dzud recovery period. nomads begun to consider changes in their livelihood rather than just seeking to increase the number of livestock.
