Honey is one of the main ingredients in the life of the Baka people | Master of Bees (Cameroon)

The Baka pygmies are expert hunter-gatherers, famous for harvesting the honey of wild bees in the forest canopy. The opportunities for building natural nests there are so numerous that it is mere illusion to imagine domesticating the bees’ activity in such an environment.
