Pastoral nomads occupy only their own territory, moving with the seasons to find forage and water. They do not expand their territory into areas that are not their own. They also consume both meat and grain, depending on availability, but their diet is generally more meat-based. Sheep and goats are both important to pastoral nomads, and which they prefer may vary depending on the specific group and the local environment.
