Asking Hunter-Gatherers Life’s Toughest Questions

Summary:
A fascinating look at the life of hunter gatherers in African. The Hadzabe didn't seem to have much interest in the after-life, and all answers went back to being about meat. They are so friendly, healthy, and attractive, but not so friendly to baboons, though. The Hadza Tribe or Hadzabe are a remote African Tribe of Hunter-Gatherers in African country of Tanzania. A few months ago, I was lucky to enough to be able to join them on a hunt to baboons. We didn't catch any, so we decided to return to try again. Right before raiding the baboon camp, I took a quiet moment to ask Soloco, the tribe's leader some of life's deepest questions. These were his responses.[embedded content]Asking Hunter-Gatherers Life's Toughest Questions [embedded content]RAIDING A BABOON CAMP with Hadza
