Chicken, anyone?

These men drive around the village to find chickens that are sold by the villagers. They are sort of middlemen on wheels; they  catch them with their own bare hands – if they can catch them because these chickens will put up a fight – bind their feet, and tie them upside down with other chickens at the side of the moto. It looks cruel but that’s the way it goes here…  These middlemen  in turn, sell these chickens in bigger markets, of course, with a bit of a profit.
