However, despite local taboos against the consumption of bonobos, it was suggested that these taboos were lifted during this period due to starvation (Waller and White, 2016). Furthermore, studies have shown that hunting of protected species for bushmeat increase by fivefold during war compared to periods of peace (Waller and White, 2016).

I think an important part of achieving a global community is understanding and working with the cultures involved. Perhaps future generations in…
