The Work.

Oana Namibia is a wildlife conservancy located in the arid semi-desert of southern Namibia. Until recently, the land was used for livestock farming, but this has been abandoned due to severe droughts. Since cattle farming is no longer fruitful, miles upon miles of wire fencing have been abandoned. Now, instead of containing domestic animals, the native wildlife is prevented from migrating and finding food and water. Oana's volunteers work tirelessly to tear down these barriers and revive the ecosystem.
