Finding communities in the world that are fully self-sufficient and do not rely on any market food is a real challenge nowadays... This is my 7th and last Nat Geo post on the Evolution of Diet story: The Hadza, a true hunter-gatherer community... The Hadza were the most intense experience I had while working on this story on the evolution of the human diet. They do not practice agriculture, herd animals, or even store any food. There is nothing to eat at camp in the morning. They walk in the surrounding savannah for a few hours and gather what they need: berries, honey (there is even a bird who sometimes guides them on that venture), tubers and tangy baobab-fruits. And yes, sometimes animals fall, hit by their arrows, but not out of greed. It was a challenge for me to write it and give justice to the experience of being there. I hope you enjoy, yours, Matthieu proof.nationalgeographic/2014/12/10/we-are-what-we-eat-hunting-the-hadza-way-with-bows-arrows-and-ingenuity/?utm_source=Facebook&utm_medium=Social&utm_content=link_fbp20141210proof-paleyhadza&utm_campaign=Content&sf6272510=1
