| 0:00:00 | 300G0023 01 | The two nephews carry a tub of dung over to where the camels are to be branded. Noogii comes over and tries lighting it. He takes out some of the dung and places it in a pile, then asks his nephew to take the rest of the dung away. Noogii sprinkles some gasoline on the dung pile, as the other nephew arrives carrying the branding iron. Noogii lights the fire as the two boys watch, then places in the branding iron in the fire to heat it up. He goes over to where the camels are standing as a group, and grabs one by a rope around its neck. Enkhee arrives and leads the camel to where the branding iron has been left. Running a rope around the camel's legs, as Enkhee holds the rope from the camel's neck, Noogii causes the camel to fall over. His nephew helps to hold the camel down as Noogii retrieves the branding iron and brands the camel. |
