Halima, Abdul and Frida, Kenya
Nick Brandt7.800,00 €
Halima and her husband lived in northeastern Kenya, where they raised livestock including camels. After 5-6 years with only one rainy season, the drought in 2013 was especially bad. The wells dried up. Not only did the cows and goats die, but even their camels died. The government would provide relief food once a year, but it was not enough on which to depend.
Halima’s husband left her, and so she and her children had to move south to Nanyuki. She is now forced to do menial jobs to raise her kids.
In 2018, Frida, a great kudu, was found when very young at the entrance gate of Ol Jogi. There is a high possibility that her mother was killed by some hunters, a victim of the illegal bushmeat trade. Kudu are declining in population across areas of sub-Saharan Africa due to illegal bushmeat poaching, habitat loss, and deforestation.
