\"\"In Liberia, where we served as missionaries,\u00a0hunters don’t hunt the way we do. Very few people can afford a gun or the shells to go hunting. When a man does own a gun, a single bullet cost about half of a days wage. Since the tribal people are animists, they believe they can go to a witch doctor and have him “bless” their guns so they will have success when they go out to shoot game. Hunters prefer to hunt at night when the animals are not on the run.<\/p>\n

Most of the people prefer to catch animals in homemade traps. The traps usually are very simple. Sometimes a hunter will notice the tracks of an animal in the bush and he will set up a trap along the trail that the animal has made. Tribal men make a trap by bending a sapling tree and then they attach a cord to the sapling in such a way that the trap will be sprung when the animal runs through the loop.<\/p>\n

Many people go without meat and as a result you can see children with discolored skin due to protein deficiency.<\/span><\/p>\n
