What's for lunch? Namibia menu today -

What's for lunch? Namibia menu today - 30 hippos, 60 buffalos, 50 impalas, 100 blue wildebeest, 300 zebras, 83 elephants, and 100 elands.  And when the animals are gone?

“Namibia, a country known for its rich wildlife and stunning landscapes, is on the edge. It is facing a shortage of food due to drought, a crisis which has forced the government to take a controversial step to kill more than 700 wild animals, including hippos and elephants, to provide meat to its people.

This drastic action comes as the nation struggles with the worst drought in a century, pushing millions of people towards hunger and severe food shortages, reported Al Jazeera. The drought has wiped out about 84 per cent of the country’s food reserves, leaving nearly half of Namibia’s 2.5 million people at risk of severe food shortages from July to September. In response to this crisis, the Namibian government has turned to its natural resources, specifically its wildlife, to help feed the hungry.

The worst drought in 100 years devastates Southern Africa

Southern Africa is experiencing its worst drought in decades, which began in October 2023. Rising temperatures, worsened by climate change and the El Nio weather phenomenon, have resulted in very low rainfall. In February, when the region usually gets most of its rain, it received less than 20 per cent of what was needed, according to experts. Namibia, along with Zimbabwe, Malawi, and Zambia, has declared a state of emergency due to the severe drought.”

You might think climate change is a joke, but millions of hungry Africans don’t.
