Nomads and drought


These people are ex-pastoralist. Majority of the population in Somalia are nomadic pastoralist.However there has been severe droughts in the 1990's that have wiped-out many livestock of the nomads thus resulting in the displacement of many pastoralists. Also this is the 5th year in a row where Somalia, and other parts of East Africa, is suffering from severe drought. I worry about the nomads in Somalia because their way of life is going to be extinct if this trend continues.
