This poem written by Therese Hart and published on Bonobo in Congo blog is dedicated to Laurent Nkunda and the many warlords who protect him
This little monkey went to market,
This little boy went to war,
This little boy has an A.K.,
This little elephant lives no more,
And this whole forest is silent, forever more.
She reminds us that bushmeat hunting is escalating as a result of the war because of the loss of domestic livestock due to raids, loss of income due to the economic impacts and though she didn’t say it, no doubt the access to guns and general state of lawlessness makes it possible and easy to hunt bushmeat.
