Ing. Mateo
supporting
Ing. Mateo is a confident man in his late 30s. He has short, neatly combed dark brown hair, warm brown eyes, and a light olive skin tone. He wears a clean, light blue uniform shirt with rolled-up sleeves and dark trousers, suitable for a professional in an agricultural setting. He often carries a rugged, modern tablet as a tool for his work. His build is average to slightly athletic.
Farmer Juan
supporting
Farmer Juan is a grizzled man, likely in his late 50s or early 60s, with a weathered face that tells tales of years spent under the sun. He has short, messy grey hair, tired but kind blue eyes, and a tanned, rugged complexion. He wears practical, worn-out denim overalls over a checkered flannel shirt, and sturdy work boots. His hands are calloused from hard labor. His build is stocky and robust.
Calf
supporting
A young, baby calf, specifically a Holstein-Friesian breed, characterized by its black and white patchy fur. It is small in size, with large, dark, dull eyes indicating illness. Its fur is soft, and it appears listless and weak, lying in a bed of straw. No collar or accessories.
Calves
supporting
A group of multiple young calves, primarily Holstein-Friesian breed, with distinctive black and white patchy fur patterns. They are small in size, consistent with their age. Initially, they appear weak, with dull eyes and some struggling to stand. Later, after treatment, they become visibly energetic and active, happily feeding from troughs. No collars or accessories.
