The district's name is derived from the root word "Damal", which means [[acacia]] woodland in the [[Somali language]]. |
|||
Damala Xagare has a population of well over 40,000. The town is located in the Hadeed Plateau, a tract of land that covers the middle of a large area of the Sool Plateau, beginning south of [[Carmaale]] village and extending as far as the depression zone south of [[Hingalol]] town. Most of this area is covered by gypsum and gypsiferous soils with minor areas of limestone. |
|||
Because of its patches of acacia trees, the land is used for communal grazing of livestock. The local community also practices wildlife conservation. |
