FILE - In this May 5, 2009, file photo, Chalula, a Navajo-Churro sheep, has her wool sheared by David Melcon, chief sheep shearer, during the annual sheep shearing event at the Children's Zoo Family Farm at the San Francisco Zoo in San Francisco. The San Francisco Zoo sends the wool to a Native American Reservation where it will be used for traditional weaving. This helps ensure the culture and rituals of weaving among the Native American tribes continues. A new program designed to promote the purchase of wool and mohair from producers on the Navajo Nation is returning to the reservation as part of a project developed through a partnership between Black Mesa Water Coalition and Diné College's Land Grand Office.
