Caption/Description
Debbie O’Neill, 54, checks the water on the 82,000-acre South Pope Ranch just north of the Big Bend National Park. West Texas has suffered from an extreme drought that has caused massive agricultural losses and killed livestock. O'Neil checks miles of pipe daily to spot leaks and keep the water flowing to her cattle.
