Teleuts (Altay: тэлэңэт, тэлэңут, romanized: Telenget, Telengut) are a Turkic Indigenous people of Siberia living in Kemerovo Oblast, Russia.

255 dated March 24, 2000, as well as 2002 and 2010 Russian Census, they are recognized as a separate ethnic group within Indigenous small-numbered peoples of the North, Siberia and the Far East.

[4] Most Teleuts used to be nomadic or semi-nomadic livestock herders and horses, goats, cattle, and sheep were the most common types of animals they raised.

Around the 17th century, these Teleuts moved up to the north of Kemerovo Oblast and interacted with local Siberian Tatars and became Sunni Muslims.
