OCR: The bushmen of the Kalahari (called San) are hunter-gatherers, and they survive by hunting wild game with bows and arrows and gathering edible plants like berries, melons and nuts as well as insects. Bushmen rarely drink - they get most of their water from plant roots and desert melons found on or under desert floor: they often store water in the blown-out shells of ostrich eggs.
