Invierno, enemigo mortal de los criadores de alpacas en Perú

In the Andes of southern Peru, families rely on alpaca and sheep farming. Heavy snowfall has severely impacted their livelihoods, causing significant animal deaths. Peru, a leading alpaca fiber producer, faces a crisis with potential losses of 300,000 animals due to extreme cold. Farmers, already among the poorest in Peru, struggle with low incomes. Despite government aid, including a state of emergency and financial support, farmers feel the assistance is inadequate, lacking protective shelters and food for vulnerable animals.
