These are the amazing pictures of an African tribe slicing into a dead baboon to eat.
The Hazda tribe in Tanzania, Africa, have been pictured at their home on the shores of Lake Eyasi, in the Ngorongoro district in the north of the country.
It is believed there are a little over 1,000 Hadza people remaining, forming one of the last hunter-gatherer communities still in existence, and living close to the site of some of the very earliest human remains.

Members of the Tanzanian tribe, who have lived as hunter-gatherers for 10,000 years, are coming under threat and fear they will be forced to adapt to Western society.
The Hadza tribe must find a way to secure their land rights, in order to have access to unpolluted water springs and wild animals to hunt in the east African country.
The tribe's food includes the fruit of the baobab tree, which is crushed to make a citrus-flavoured milkshake, wild tubers tasting similar to turnips and celery, and meat from animals including baboons and porcupines.
A King's College London professor who visited the tribe last year said they had the healthiest guts in the world, as their diets allowed them to grow a diverse range of digestive bacteria.

One of the tribe members - 14-year-old Manu - is pictured shooting an arrow at Lake Eyasi in the north of Tanzania. The hunter-gatherer Hadza tribe have lived a largely unchanged existence for thousands of years in the east African country but are coming under threat and fear they will be forced to absorb into a Western culture of which they have no experience

The Hadza people have their own language which is only very loosely related to other regional languages - based on its use of clicks as consonants - and the language does not have any written form
