The dam affecting the Karo's lives was predominantly funded by The Industrial and Commercial Bank of China. ETHIOPIA: MEET THE tribe that DROWNS disabled BABIES because they believe them to be CURSED. Photos show young boys of the Karo tribe smiling covered top to toe in multi-patterned warrior paint. However the adults find less time to smile, as they pose behind their land that is being destroyed by the government for industrial development. Men carry rifles that were gifted to them by European visitors across the last 50 years, and have been passed through generations like family heirlooms to scare off enemies. One elder woman even uses a drinks straw as jewellery. The photos were taken in the Omo River Valley, Ethiopia, by Jim Zuckerman (72) from Franklin, USA. The American shot the fascinating portraits on a Canon EOS-1Dx Mark II.
