As Cameroon's jungle shrinks, pygmies' lifestyle is under threat
In eastern Cameroon, over 20,000 hectares of virgin forest are disappearing every year due to logging, forcing the indigenous Baka pygmies out of the jungle they rely on for survival.

The construction of the Baka Pygmies' eco-houses (in the rainforests of Cameroon, Gabon, and Congo) is simple, communal, and fully integrated into the environment. The dwellings, called mongulu, are built with flexible branches forming a dome-shaped structure. They are covered with large rainforest leaves and plant fibers, without nails or any external materials. Everything is gathered from the surrounding area and renewed as needed. #inspirationofafrica | Quim Fàbregas - Fotografía y Viajes.

The houses of the Baka pygmies, who live in the forests of Congo, Cameroon, and Gabon, are simple, temporary structures perfectly adapted to the jungle environment. Women are usually responsible for building them. They nail thin branches together in a circle, forming a dome- or beehive-shaped frame, which they then cover with overlapping broad leaves to protect from water and sun. They are small, just enough for a family, and are mainly used for sleeping and sheltering from the rain. #inspiratio

The natural cuisine of the Baka pygmies, in the rainforests of southern Cameroon and Congo, is based on a deep knowledge of forest plants. They gather leaves, roots, wild fruits, and fungi, which they use to prepare nutritious and medicinal foods.Among their most common dishes are coconut leaves cooked with palm oil, wild cassava, and forest bananas. They also use aromatic plants and bark to flavor and preserve food. Everything is cooked using traditional methods, in green leaves over a fire or
