    Photograph: Jerome Delay/AP From our gallery following Niger’s nomadi herdsmen: A young herdsman walks through his cattle around 15km outside Bermo, in southern Niger, close to the border with Nigeria. In a region where men use livestock to settle disputes, pay the dowry for brides and pass on to sons as inheritance, severe drought is forcing many to sell their animals to survive
