Minorities, living as primitive, hunted hippos and crocodiles to eat meat

El Molo is one of the world's smallest tribes, when there are less than 500 people left.

Although they are small tribes, they are extremely brave, because what they hunt for food is crocodiles and hippos, which are extremely fierce animals.

The hunting of crocodiles and hippos is the mission of healthy men of the tribe. Each time they defeat an animal, they divide it equally for everyone, enjoying the fruits together.

The men who participated in the hunt were given special bracelets and earrings by women of the tribe to demonstrate the power of these "warriors".
