Catch All The Fish In 15 Minutes

Catch All The Fish In 15 Minutes

Right near the village of Bamba in the northern part of the county Dogon, Mali, there is a small sacred lake where fishing is permitted only once a year, during a unique ritual, which is called Antogo. At one time this area was a haven of green, and the lake is completely provided by the local population of fish. Despite the fact that as a result of climate change area near Bamba became a barren desert, in a small lake with fish yet. Authorities establish a special day, when everybody can catch fish themselves. The lake is emptied completely in fifteen minutes.
