Ngo’to and her grandson tending to a small herd of goats on October 10, 2023. After migrating from the Mara, they still had ancestral land there which they could lease in portions to supplement their income. However, due to her husband's illness, the responsibility for managing and making decisions about the cattle and the land has been taken over by other relatives. As a woman, she has limited influence over these assets and is left with goats, often referred to as 'women's animals.
