Story

Tiva, a name from Shona meaning "dance," captures the movement of this brown heifer as she gracefully navigates the dry, sparse landscape. Managed by land managers, her grazing is part of a well-orchestrated plan to enhance ecosystem diversity. As Tiva moves, her hooves trample the vegetation, laying down a layer of ground cover that is crucial for moisture retention, erosion prevention, and the decomposition process. This action supports the health and regeneration of the land, showing how livestock can contribute to the 'dance' of life in the ecosystem through strategic grazing practices.
