Hunting is another common activity, and antelope, boar, ostrich, and guinea fowl are killed for their meat and skins. In addition, honey is gathered from the wild bees in the area. Kagoro villages consist of a number of different households, usually all from one lineage or extended family. The members of the gwa work together every day except Monday, which is market day and the traditional day of rest. The houses of the Kagoro are somewhat larger than those of other groups in West Africa, with the largest containing sixty or more people.
Children provide the household's labor force and ensure the future of the lineage.
As a result, the average Kagoro woman has eight children. Marriages, therefore, are very important and are viewed almost as an investment. All adults are married, and it is considered strange that some from neighboring groups remain single. Even elderly widows in their seventies or eighties have suitors. The women are obliged to accept one of the suitors, since a wife increases the prestige of a man.
