The Day in Photos – August 3, 2018

In this August 1, 2018 photo, dead, young llamas are burned as a ritualistic offering to the “Pachamama”, or Mother Earth, on La Cumbre, a mountain considered sacred on the outskirts of La Paz, Bolivia. According to lore, the Pachamama awakens hungry and thirsty every August after the dry season, and to satiate her, devotees toss offerings including fruit, coca, sweets and dead llama fetuses into a bonfire.
