From Poverty to Promise

In this photo taken on Tuesday, April 15, 2014, Norwegian Red calves rest on a pile of hay inside a farm in the village of Kozarac, near Bosnian town of Perijedor, 250 kms northwest of Sarajevo. Bosnian farmer Jusuf Arifagic invested eight million euro into the luxury farm that started four months ago with the import of 115 Norwegian Red Cows - a type of tough and hornless animal bred in Norway over the past 75 years to produce more and better milk than the usual cow known in the Balkans. He plans to expand into the biggest facility keeping this type of animal in Europe with 5,000 cows. In a country where half of the population is living in poverty, his animals sleep on mattresses in a barn with a computerized air condition and lighting system. They are bathed regularly, get a massage whenever they feel like it and receive the occasional pedicure.(AP Photo/Amel Emric) (AP Photo/Amel Emric)
