All I could do is pray for these people. Anyway here are some images. Wrong lens and these are heavily cropped as they are quick scans. I will not post the slaughtering of the animals though. So ugly...They ended up scaring us away as they did not like their pictures taken....but I kept shooting.
Here we have the black witch and the white witch. Notice the snake..




Here is a little tighter look at the witch

Wow! Your walk in the forest would be an adventure for any photographer.
The second capture where it looks as though the white witch (?) is gazing at you through the hanging fabric, awesome capture.
