Hunting for Honey Adventures with the Rajis of Nepal

In the plain of the Ganges in southern Nepal, Eric Valli has discovered the existence of a fascinating nomadic tribe. Known as the bee people, the Rajis survive by harvesting wild honey and by fishing; a way of life that seems to have remained unchanged for centuries. In a forest overwhelmed by the humming of the bees, they collect wild honey from immense hives perched high in gigantic trees. The honey is a source of food, but is also used to treat wounds, and is a valuable commodity.
