* shepherds and cattle coming back to the craal '1*

We spent some nights in the biggest cattle craal of Jie-land in Karamoja (Kotido-District).
Ten thousands of cattle (if not more than a hundred thousand).
Mostly men and boys stay here. Every evening they bring the cattle into the thornfenced sections, where they all stay together. The sounds of cows, goats, sheep and donkeys remain throughout the night.
People sit and sleep around small fires. Only milk, blood and some hungerfoods (crops and shrubs) are the available diet here.

Even me I had fresh milked cowmilk mixed with fresh blood, shared in a big bowl. It is not as bad as it sounds actually (let's not hope for another round of Brucellosis....)
