FRANCISTOWN (BOTSWANA), Feb. 17– Photo taken on Feb. 6, 2025 shows mopane worms at a market in Francistown, Botswana. Botswana’s five-pula coin features an engraved image of a mopane worm, a nutritious delicacy popular in southern Africa. But climate change has led to a dramatic decline in mopane worm population, hurting those who rely on harvesting the worms for a living.
