Whether we live in cities or in rural areas, animals give us so much, from the food that we eat to the clothes that we wear. For many, livestock are also their livelihoods, providing meat, milk, wool and leather, as well as manure for fertilising the land.
God created animals to bless us and he even gave Adam the privilege of naming them in the Garden of Eden. But as you will see in this edition of Footsteps, if we are not wise in the way we treat and manage livestock, there can be many problems on both a local and a global level.
The edition includes a feature on animal loan schemes, an article on how to deal with livestock in emergencies and a radio play.
