Somalia livestock population

[Harti man]

I asked chatgpt what is Somalia livestock population, because I couldn’t find it using google

Chatgpt said we have

• Cattle: 12,810,000
• Sheep: 25,780,000
• Goats: 27,980,000
• Camels: 8,050,000
• Poultry: 44,000,000

I also asked for Ethiopia and Kenya livestock numbers or populations

The Kenyan numbers is

• Cattle: 19,783,000
• Sheep: 17,103,000
• Goats: 31,039,000
• Camels: 3,235,000
• Poultry: 45,575,000

The camels obviously belongs to us somalis, and I think a good chunk of these livestock to belong to us too.

and lastly the Ethiopian one

• Cattle: 59.5 million
• Sheep: 32.8 million
• Goats: 33.4 million
• Pigs: 1.9 million
• Poultry: 60 million

Including 1.1 million camels

in conclusion Somalia have one of the largest populations of livestock in the world comparing to our small population, but the most surprising was how much poultry we had, because I always thought Somali back home didn’t eat chicken.

With big livestock numbers how come worlds view of Somalia is as hungry country this narrative need to die

Outside of a few business men, no one keeps chickens. Most of the chicken on sale is from Brazil.

I heard from some relatives that Somalis back home view chicken meat with poverty, they just look down on you if you consume it

You used chatgpt as a source
Either way if somalis can learn sustainable grazing methods we could shadow every other nation when it comes to camels.

Here is a interesting video about it

I asked Chatgpt to use the FAO as sources for the numbers because they are the most reliable source

I really don’t care about farming it’s bit overrated. Livestock is more important and profitable

Somali community in sudan own and take care of camels in the capital city of khartoum. They're teaching sudanese the somali way of camel pastoralism. They're also teaching them to consume camel milk as somalis do in somalia. The man in the video is the owner of hashi company. He is developing the area and expanding his business.

MashAllah, expanding the geeljire lifestyle to outsiders. May this gesture leave a great legacy and appreciation of Somali contribution in the region

There’s definitely more camels in DDS then Somalia proper geeljire lifestyle is realer over there

What is DDS

I have a feeling that you may be hinting at something that could be accurate. Somalia has a higher urban population, which stands at almost 50%, while that figure is closer to 20% in DDS (based on stats from a little over 10 years ago). The rest are a mix of pastoralist and farmers. Which then could make sense.

But when you look up the actual population, Somalia's have much more camels than Ethiopia. Hmm

What is DDS

Dowlad Deegaanka Soomaalida, the Somali Regional State

There is a lot of camels is Australia maybe someone should claim them. Its a big business opportunity

Why is sheep separated from Cattle? I wanted to know the number of Goats

That’s what I was getting at Somalia has a higher urbanization rate and also has areas which aren’t suitable for camel rearing that’s why Somalis on the coastline are fishermen the land in DDS is also more suitable for camel herding

Agreed. Australia has no use for them and in fact on the contrary they contribute to the destruction of the australian wild life habitat and disturbs the delicate balance of the environment. The australian government tried to shoot them down and i recall a young somali geeljire from the south recorded a video protesting their action and asking them to send these camels to somalia.

He said "we've been hearing human right for way to long what about animal rights"? These camels in australia would be welcomed in somalia especially after the three years drought that the country experienced. They would replenish the camel population of somali.
