   Husky dogs are connected with Syberian folks and were bred to fulfil their needs in conditions of one of the most unfriendly climates in the world, with very low temperatures and strong winds with snow.
   A team of 20 husky dogs can help a man to cover very long distances within one day, on snow and on ice.
