Salburun ( Kyrgyz : Салбуурун) is a traditional kind of hunt in Kyrghyzstan and Central Asia, involving falconry, archery and sometimes mounted archery, as well as hunt with Taigan.
At the end of Salburun contests, the winners of the different disciplines receive an award; the main disciplines are:
:* Hunting with eagles,
:* Hunting with Taigan,
:* Taigan races,
:* Mounted archery. Salburun comes from nomadic tradition of hundting and protecting herds from predators such as the wolves. Festivals have been organised in Central Asia since 1997. After the festival of 2006 in Tong district, Kyrgyzstan, international reactions to the violence of the event led the Salburun Federation to rethinking the rules and taking measures for animal defense. In 2015, a petition has been launched to end wolf bainting.
Salburun is one of the Worldwide Nomad Games' disciplines.
