"One Hundred Years of Darkness - Pygmies" Renowned for their skills as trackers and hunters, CongoÕs pygmies have been recruited as military scouts by both rebel and government forces. To avoid being drafted, many crossed the river to neighboring Republic of Congo. Long isolated in central AfricaÕs dense jungles, the pygmies are highly susceptible to disease in new urban environments.
