The first one is Somalia, or Ethiopia.

The second one has to be South Africa or may be Rwanda.

In March 1993 Carter made a trip to southern Sudan. The sound of soft, high-pitched whimpering near the village of Ayod attracted Carter to a young emaciated Sudanese toddler. The girl had stopped to rest while struggling to a feeding center, whereupon a vulture had landed nearby. He said that he waited about 20 minutes, hoping that the vulture would spread its wings. It didn't. Carter snapped the haunting photograph and chased the vulture away [2]. However, he also came under heavy criticism for just photographing — and not helping — the little girl:

"The man adjusting his lens to take just the right frame of her suffering might just as well be a predator, another vulture on the scene."[3]

First picture, the guy that took the pic didnt even help the kid, the kid was crawlings towards a rafugee camp and all he did was take the picture and leave the kid dying and the volture ready to feast on his body, eyes, etc, so no one knows what had happen to the child. AUN.

anywho, the photographer committed suicide just months after, directly related to the photo.
