A cattle driver whips a bull with a rope before dragging it
to a slaughter house in a suburb of Bangui. Working as a team, these young men are hired by the bull owners who purchase the bulls in the livestock market, and pay young men 2,000 CFA (about 4 USD) to take a bull to the slaughter house. The cows are mostly herded from Chad, Sudan, and as far as Niger, traveling up to two weeks to reach Bangui. They could be sold from 500,000 CFA (about 1,000 USD) to 700,000 CFA (about 1,470 USD) per cow.
