The rivers affected include the Trent, Maun, and Leen, and the agency said the areas most at risk were low-lying agricultural land, roads, and footpaths close to small rivers and streams.

The millet is used in a craft brewery set up in the town of Maun, making beer for thirsty tourists.

Irene Maun Sigrah, a local Marshallese leader and a community health care worker, said Dubuque’s population of these Pacific Islanders has been tragically hard hit.

“Elephants have killed a lot of people and destroyed livelihoods. I think government is doing the right thing in reducing their numbers,” said Tiro Segosebe, a Gaborone resident whose home village of Maun is one of the areas most affected by the human-wildlife conflict.

Maun says sago poisoning killed a family of five in his village three years ago.
