Story

Sipho, a name from Xhosa meaning "gift," is fitting for this brown heifer as she stands within the confines of a rustic wooden fence. Managed by land managers, her presence is a gift to the ecosystem, promoting health through strategic grazing. As Sipho moves, her hooves contribute to trampling, which helps in creating ground cover essential for moisture retention, erosion control, and the decomposition process. This activity not only aids in the regeneration of the land but also highlights how livestock can be a valuable gift in maintaining ecological balance.
