| Description: |
Angira says that the birth of a child is announced by a man. Neighbors and relatives come to see the baby to utter well-wishes and give the baby presents. According to a belief, when a boy is born a family dogs tries to cover the lower part of the yurt with sand so that the boy stays warm and healthy. When a girl is born a family dog makes a hole under the yurt so that the girl gets a cold.
