Pastoralists are people all over the world who keep herds of livestock – ranging from alpacas to yaks – in mobile systems, producing food on the move, providing organic manure and recycling crop residues. They are amazingly efficient protein producers, conserve biodiversity and regard their animals as family members that they keep in ways that can be considered cruelty-free: without separating mothers from offspring, allowing them dietary choices, and freedom to move. Join an international panel of pastoralists and experts working across Africa, Asia, and Europe to discuss how pastoralist practices and philosophies are situated at the interface of ecological livestock keeping and nature conservation.
