Sheep marathon
The loss of the old tradition of transhumance (seasonal movement of livestock from higher pastures to lower valleys) affects biodiversity status: when animals move to one place to the other, they bring with them microorganisms and seeds which enrich the ecosystems. A relay of sheep from the Czech Republic to Morocco can be organized to raise awareness of the need to protect and revive transhumance in Europe and beyond.
