EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this incredible snapshot captured by Ardea Picture Library, we witness the awe-inspiring tradition of transhumance - a great trek that has been happening since the 14th century. As if straight out of a fairy tale, these majestic brown creatures gather before embarking on their arduous journey across the main alpine crest in the Oetztal Alps between South Tyrol, Italy, and North Tyrol, Austria. With their fluffy coats blending seamlessly with the snowy landscape and Niederjochferner glacier looming behind them, it's hard not to be amazed by this sight. These domestic animals showcase an ancient heritage and cultural significance as they navigate through perilous terrain to reach greener pastures. The sheer scale of this migration is mind-boggling - a mighty herd traversing mountains and valleys in search of plentiful grazing grounds. It's no wonder that UNESCO recognizes this unique transborder tradition as part of our world's intangible cultural heritage. As we marvel at this spectacle from afar, let us appreciate the dedication and endurance displayed by both shepherd and sheep alike. This extraordinary endeavor reminds us that nature always finds its way to remind us how truly spectacular our planet can be.
