Very sad to hear this:

Harare, Dec 10, 2008 / 08:01 pm (CNA).- Caritas Internationalis is warning that the crisis in Zimbabwe is so grave that people facing crushing food shortages are mixing cow dung with their food…

I think there are, but probably not the big fat cows we see in the U.S.
In some 3rd world country, you can pick the dung on the streets. I used to step on them once in awhile if my eyes were not on the road.
 
Oh that is so sad but yet so disgusting too. I don’t see how they could possibly be getting any nutrition from cow dung. I really feel sorry for these people. Are there any charities that we can donate to that help out these people? 🤷:confused:
 
The guy is a real headcase. He declared the cholera epidemic officially controlled because he thinks people will just use it as a ruse to invade and topple him from power.

Any aid is going to have a hard time getting past his outstretched arms.

As far as eating cow dung I believe the people owning the cow and the people eating the dung would be different people.

I would think aid sent to bordering countries like South Africa to be used for the refugees fleeing over the borders would likely do the most good for the dollar.
