We proceed on our trip across Benga<\/strong> territory, a heavenly area located on the Gabonese coast<\/strong>: Cape Esterias.<\/p>\n The Benga essentially live from the sea, in one way or another: offshore fishing, onshore clam picking, mangrove crab trapping, and even sea water turtles catching, a highly controversial activity as we witnessed last week<\/a>.<\/p>\n We\u2019re now turning to crab fishing<\/strong> with two short films, one featuring a young trapper telling us how hard his job is getting, and another that\u2019ll take us to pick up the actual crab pots with a group of trappers.<\/p>\n So to start with, here\u2019s Tataka<\/strong>, descendant of a long lineage of trappers, seeing his livelihood decrease as the resource gradually fades. Between the exploitation of sand and the destruction of the mangrove to build houses, the crabs aren\u2019t finding the place too settling these days\u2026<\/p>\n
