Drought wreaks havoc on wildlife and livestock in East Africa


At least 26 million people are struggling to find food after consecutive poor rainy seasons in the Horn of Africa.

Drought conditions in northern Kenya, much of Somalia and southern Ethiopia are expected to last until at least mid-2022, endangering lives.

The situation has gotten so bad that wildlife has died in the hundreds and ranchers are reporting losses of up to 70% of their herds.

BBC senior Africa correspondent Anne Soy reports from Wajir in northern Kenya.
