Nagaland Wild Bird-Eating Market



1800: Lots of birds and no guns, traditional traps
1900: Lots of birds and few guns, catapults, traditional traps
1970: Some birds and more guns, catapults, traditional traps
2011: Hardly any birds and all types of guns, chemicals, bird-poisons
2015: No birds, only guns and chemicals



Just visit a local bazaar and you're sure to be greeted with this type of spectacle:

Dead birds waiting for customers at Dimapur Supermarket. March 2011.
