Death in the heights

About life in the fields and its difficulties in relation to work.

In the heights of Huancavelica and Junín (Peru) many are the problems that are crossed. One of them directly affects the situation of thousands of people who are engaged in raising alpacas, sheep and cattle in general. The low temperatures, which occur due to work being done at more than 4 thousand meters above sea level, and the lack of infrastructure causes thousands of animals to die from the cold, affecting the workers themselves in their health and economy.
