A Himba woman carries an ehoro (traditional wooden bucket) filled with milk after milking cows in a corral in the village of Okapembambu in northwestern Namibia. The Himba diet consists of corn meal porridge and sour cow's milk. During the rainy season there is plenty of grass for the animals to eat but the mud and manure of the corral are problematic.
