HARARE, Zimbabwe (AP) — Zimbabwe and Namibia have announced plans to slaughter hundreds of wild elephants and other animals to feed hunger-stricken residents amid severe drought conditions in the southern African countries.

Zimbabwe said Monday it would allow the killing of 200 elephants so that their meat can be distributed among needy communities, while in Namibia the killing of more than 700 wild animals — including 83 elephants — is under way as part of a plan announced three weeks ago.

I tried some ostrich this week. Half price in Iceland (the shop, not the country). Tastes a bit like ̶c̶h̶i̶c̶k̶e̶n̶ beef.

A severe drought can be devastating unless you have a large food reserve.

That's a completely different subject. While I agree that their assets is cause for concern, the severe drought is the reason people are starving.

They will do anything to rationalize and justify Trump's lies. Next thing we will here is that there is a drought in Springfield, Ohio.
