As Ebola scourges Congo, experts warn of link to eating wild animals

Ebola outbreaks in eastern Congo are linked to the consumption and handling of wild animals, despite warnings from health experts. Vendors in Kinshasa's Masina Market continue to sell wild meat, including bushmeat and caterpillars, highlighting cultural demand. The U.S. CDC and Africa Centres for Disease Control warn that zoonotic diseases like Ebola spread through human interaction with infected wildlife.
