Cowgirls in Colombia

Colombia is one of South America's top cattle producers, and much of that industry is rooted in the vast plains of Los Llanos, in the northeast of the country. Traditionally dominated by male cowboys, ranching is now seeing a quiet but powerful shift. Correspondent Michelle Begue introduces us to Colombia's cowgirls — women who are deeply embedded in ranching culture, challenging gender norms, preserving tradition, and reshaping what life on the plains looks like today. #Colombia #LosLlanos #Cowgirls #WomenBreakingBarriers #RanchLife #LatinAmerica #CattleIndustry #WomenInAgriculture #SouthAmerica #TraditionAndChange #AmericasNow #features
