Young girls being fed large quantities of camel milk against their will in Mauritania so that they can get fat faster. Fat girls were (and to a large extend still are) very popular with Mauritanian men. Force feeding is a tradition that used to be common among nomadic tribes of Mauritania. It is decreasing nowadays thanks to education and awareness programs.
