> why "in Africa"?

Because, as I wrote a couple posts before "an average (meta consumption) in North and Central Africa of 10kg/person/year which is optimistic for some of the countries there"

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_meat_cons...

- Congo - 100 million people - 5.3kg/person/year

- Eritrea - 110 million people - 7.7kg/person/year

- Mozambique - 30 million people - 7.8kg/person/year

- etc. etc.

In Africa many countries don't have enough to feed their children and it's worst on average then in the rest of the World.

I don't think that chicken is waste (it is in fact the main type of meat they eat in Africa), I think feeding pythons in some western home with chicken is a waste.

They could feed them with mice they breed in their garages.

At least that's what my friend who own reptiles do
