A Kenyan livestock herder Galgalo Wato, from the Funanqumbi village in northern Kenya, sits on Monday, July 24, in his hut with his three remaining cattle, all that is left from a herd of 120 cows. Butchered sheep and goats are strung up in a thorn tree ready for cooking in this remote north Kenyan village, as though the people are preparing a giant celebration feast. But there is no party here and the mood is grim: in desperation, the villagers are killing the animals upon which their lives depend, rather than see them die in the extreme drought sweeping the region.
