The Hadzabe Bushmen, numbering around 1,000 in Tanzania, are the world’s last remaining hunter-gatherers living of the land. Inhabiting the scrubby bushland they use only bows and arrows and have no lasting impact on wildlife populations. Hadzabe men search for food alone, and return home with golden honey, sweet fruit, or hearty wild game when available. Women go out in large groups and forage for bright berries and baobab fruit, depending on availability. The Hadzabe don’t cut trees, don’t dig water holes and don’t ‘own’ things'. Instead they live in harmony with their environment.

The Datoga are highland Nilotic pastoralists dependent on their livestock and skilled blacksmiths – often trading their arrowheads with the Hadza in exchange for skins and honey.
