The nationalist group Coalición Canaria within the Cabildo of Gran Canaria will present an initiative to foster understanding of the archipelago's livestock heritage among younger generations. This project, supported by the Official College of Veterinary Profession of Las Palmas, aims to strengthen Canarian identity through the island's educational institutions.

Vidina Cabrera, spokesperson for CC in the Cabildo, emphasized during a visit to a livestock farm in Lomo Magullo (Telde) that the project focuses on "valuing the sustainability, conservation, and protection of Canarian livestock heritage so that our roots and identity remain alive."

Cabrera highlighted that native Canarian breeds represent a "resource of enormous historical, cultural, economic, and environmental value," having been "fundamental to the economic and social development of the islands" and forming part of the "collective identity of the Canary Islands."

The proposal, scheduled for the May plenary session, plans to delve into breeds such as the Presa Canario and Podenco dogs, Majorera and Palmera goats, and Canarian and Palmera sheep. According to the nationalist spokesperson, preserving these breeds contributes to maintaining biodiversity, protecting ecosystems, boosting local economies, and conserving cultural identity.
