Yak
Don't talk back.
For thousands of years, yaks have been loyal partners to families living in the world’s most rugged terrains. Uniquely adapted to carrying loads in mountainous areas, they also produce valuable milk and wool for blankets and clothing.
Mercy Corps supports the traditional livelihoods of herding families who raise yaks. In addition to helping families care for their precious livestock, we help them bring products like cheese, butter and other finished goods to market — earning much-needed income.
