The Shandrin ( Russian Шандрин ) is a 414 km long right tributary of the Indigirka in the Sakha Republic (Yakutia) in Russia .

The Schandrin rises a good 300 km as the crow flies northwest of Srednekolymsk and 100 km southeast of the Chokurdach settlement on a northern branch of the Ulachan-Sis ridge , which borders the Kolyma lowlands in the northwest. It flows through the tundra landscape of the eastern Kondakov plateau first in an easterly, then northeastern direction . After a wide arc in a westerly direction, it meanders increasingly strongly to the lake-rich and swampy lowlands east of the Indigirka delta , which it crosses in a northerly direction until it flows into the right estuary of the Indigirka (protoka) Kolymskaja about 120 km east-northeast of Tschokurdach , 29 km above its mouth is the East Siberian Sea .

The catchment area of the river covers 7570 km². The most important tributaries are Tatylkan (length 62 km), Bjorjo-Jurjage (64 km) and Kjurjutke (87 km, also Kuritka-Shandrin) from the left as well as Keilen-Djunjum (53 km), Tilech (135 km) and Naldyktschan (59 km ) from the right.

The Schandrin flows through the very thinly populated Ulus Allaicha along its entire length . There are no towns on the river.

In 1972, the almost complete skeleton and very well-preserved internal organs of a woolly mammoth were found in the permafrost at Schandrin , which was named after the place where it was found .
