Das Iditarod führt 1800 Kilometer durch die Wildnis Alaskas. Es gilt als härtestes Hundeschlittenrennen der Welt – und steht dafür in der Kritik. Auch die Klimakrise bereitet den Veranstaltern Probleme.
The Iditarod sled dog race in Alaska is facing challenges due to snow shortages caused by the climate crisis. For the fourth time in its history, the race's start location has been moved north to Fairbanks, affecting the traditional route.
