− | ==Education==
| + | While spending a semester in East Africa, Andrew spent time living with the [[Hadzabe]], a nomadic tribe. This included hunting expeditions. Though he stalked a giraffe and watched his guide come very close to downing a zebra, the only thing that was inevitably caught was a rock hyrax. He declined to partake in the stew that was created out of all of its innards. |
