The community of El Tigre in Chihuahua, Mexico, is grappling with a severe crisis caused by prolonged drought and overexploitation of resources.
“All that’s left are puddles,” laments a Facebook post regarding the municipality of San Francisco de Conchos, where families rely heavily on fishing for their livelihood.
Despite worsening conditions, the community holds onto hope that this year will bring more rainfall. A rise in water levels at La Boquilla Dam could provide much-needed relief and help secure their way of life.
