Inhabitants of the Kalahari Desert

Inhabitants of the Kalahari Desert
The San people who inhabit the Kalahari Desert in southern Africa have lived on this mostly red-soiled desert for thousands of years. Although most now live as farmers and cattle raisers, a small number of nomads still subsist by gathering wild plants and fruit from the sparse vegetation of the region and by hunting for meat.
