Shrimp fishermen lay their nets in the waters off of Senegal. Women process fish on the shore at Karountine, northwest of Ziguinchor. A growing number of Africans live on the coast because the ocean is one of the last sources for protein available.
Authorities have attempted to get rid of this village, but since fishing is the most important aspect of St. Louis, the community has fought off the government to stay here.
