traditions to protect some blood in the team, lioness. what's the name of the lionesses that the lion is the most dangerous animal? and we're the bravest women in the world. that's why we call ourselves lionesses. after all, we are women, i can't say we are lying and the it's monday morning. the rangers begin the new week, searching for tracks and traces of wild animals. no matter. they came this way. what are the tracks? okay, there's a local lender and say, what about us? a zebra?

whose trent fedex us? it went this way. sandra does eve or who aren't close everything? they're like donkeys. they've got to come. that's why they're easy to recognize. so isn't differentiates that i've got 345678 a to get on because this last one, the tools, the purity has been on the job for 4 years, 3 miles. good. sadly, from the my problem i've been calling and most i think tendency to bravo the purity and lia had to fight hard for their jobs. training was only opened up to women 4 years ago. the area they cover is around and bassetti national park. it's on the border between kenya and tanzania.

the the park itself is a reserved almost 400 square kilometers in size. it has the densest the population of wild animals in east africa. the of course, the wild animals repeatedly make their way into the neighboring messiah villages. and so that causes conflict would not be my one best buy. i could tell we had to face many challenges, some of the why number of people and animals live here side by side of the book a. it's clear wild animals because accidents again and again em send us an item, a comment, especially the lions and elements quaker. them buy me enough. i never heard of

somebody mess emma. tell me you is. the most important thing for us is to protect the wild animals and ensure they're doing well and not being threatened by poachers, even though i know my body, not yet, he'll kill me, tell them that she could not how i know my 4 people and animals should live together here peacefully. she without getting any child there sway. loved them not beloved. yeah, they know them to some boy and then my body lia comes from one of these beside villages. she's been a ranger now for 6 months. i bought any money from me for somebody who is they will not come on. we at least has a very dangerous place. mean wild animals could be hiding here anywhere. campbell, if they pick up your sense most of the time to disappear into the bush a new, but they can also attack you before you even realize they're they're actually que says us. the rangers risk their lives at work daily,

the height of 25 kilometers to the savannah, the habitat of elephants, lions, and hide us during their patrols. they've counted as many as 2000 wild animals in 6 months. so most of our heard are they have the most trouble with the wildlife because they come across the animals again and again. the god. when did the lions of attack your call night last week, a fellow who lion little will for her and then yes. without teeth, but with claws watching so on will. yes, he's old and we have these already attached by her twice as are they going to be just a tax but can't really get the why you heard some within the last 60 husband piece with i got a lot for love happens to the cough. i find it on this hill,

it's head was torn down. when you sleep on this hill, you'll put it at the bottom of it. and then you're going to how many animals have you lost already down there? and i don't know what all anessa loads. it's the same guy. how do you deal with that and, and i need, i've sat but what can i do against me? not to kick out when i get it's not easy. what a lion kills a call that the owner is your, your one would like to kill by and get some of that because it killed his call them by, you know, i'm a ranger, but i'm also a teacher and for the community to mothers and become a trust to me and it's not in the act on my loser. i number the, i mean i teach them how to deal with the wild animals. what's the level community, what i'm taking the opinion off wednesday, december, 4th uh from but i know i know my party it's important to team line is that they of close contact with the surrounding villages. sign a we for the,

the, the the, hold it in front of your face, hold it really tight and take the model. i'll show you that you can do it. now i always do it at home. when i go and that's where i'm in the lab, the women trust us to chat with them when we visit. oh, we just couldn't get oh can i? what does that student then let me ask them if they notice anything? well, they were collecting firewood, which animals did they say yeah, look at the guess study what to magical doesn't meant. they're usually the best informed about what's going on around them now on the way i can then do the

nice that you visiting again given one of them for the while, you're always very welcome the law or did you make them yourselves? aren't they heavy? you know, we don't know them saying that is that a james and the know it would be too short when it's finished or close it into a bracelets usually like to get me to them. well developed. the buffalo, like one comes to a watering hole, then goes back into the bush and then the father, you know, we don't fetch water every day. i really do need the women in the massage and culture have little say and don't work for pay someone to book when the and i was 10 years old and i understood it wasn't easy to

be a woman in the must die culture lice. i watched my mother the number month how she worked every day, like she got up and milk the cows or does she lived? and then she got us ready for school and heard the cows out to great young man in the month. and now she fetched water and brought the cows back in their shelter because she was responsible for every thing that's as one just off. she worked from 4 am to 11 at night and then communion and consummation. i'm curious that the men look down on us women that, oh wow. now have i'm assuming one of these say we don't do anything on the new york fund. they say we can't even do housework, right. the indiana kazi zulu, or find a job fine. like we have on t lion, is that kazi or meg? and you're welcome and related suicide. last, the,

during the work week, the purity and the as the that kept the mobile together with their meal colleagues, they relax, sleep and eat under one roof. normally the messiah's daily routine separates the genders the to the messiah main, and we can living together with their female colleagues, took some getting used to at the start and their culture close contact with women is limited to family members. you always have to be informed about what's going on . that's right. could you stand up so i can move forward while on no long community, the men in our village are very different from our colleagues as well. so we live

closely with our co workers, so i'm not like with siblings next to me. that's why the people in the villages don't have a very good opinion about 1 o'clock. one of give you up to feedback and they look down on us and also about us government. it's really not very supportive focused on the individual ground. does that, that is when the pray is true. so the hopefully god will send you twins, which is pre sending carla weiss, protect the government, and the every lunch and pray for that. you are blessed that you may god send us luck. may he guide us? when we walking in the bush, may he protect us with his lovely fragrance, the purity being allowed to see the dinner time premier is a small child, because that's traditionally

a male domain. she and lee had to apply to the village elders to get their jobs on team lion is they also have to prove they were physically fit and well educated was on me quite a while. no, not come up at the start. the others thought we would just have a good time with a man, i hit and all alone with them in the bush. but people had really dirty thoughts for over time, too. they came to understand how good we were here for work. how about a no other reason you owe on us? give us it's february. the sun rises at 6 45 am. it's time for roll call. good, go, don't. don't be done. running on the bus monitor went to you, went to the

couple lines a can you find the quest? oh no, not the beginning. welcome mail rangers. didn't believe we'd be up to the challenges, encore and the newcomer had to go is that the job is so hard quote, but we have to hike through the bush for our and i came there might ask them sending you the thought we'd never and she thought because we were women, is the single one, the funds of they didn't know any women before. so did this type of work to help on buying. we are the 1st all fund. 6 it's out, it's not moving as i would do when i is the louder review. straighten your leg due to high. so that was awful. i don't really

know if it was well on of the more than 800 elephants are living in the region at this time. there are no national park boundaries for them. they migrate from park to park and regularly across most side territory. the female rangers are called out again and again. a herd of elephants says approach the village. the elephant cows are restless because they are young. with that, it's a dangerous situation for the female rangers to combo center to find the funds on one of my 1st patrols. we were attacked by a buffalo and some were injured. yeah,

i was quite frustrated and wanted to quit the job show up on our colleagues were so encouraging and my part of the name was, you know, from those 27th day, i know that these are the challenges i have to face on one the look on way now among the attending to somebody as my after that some i never thought of getting up . somebody not nice. just dangerous missions make for strong bonds. liberal. yeah. yeah. it was, it was the name on the how i love this works. i'm having it pleases me where you what do you think purity knew the longer that and then i think of this job without this job and then we must die when i wouldn't get any recognition in our community in a lot of my sites. i so saw the work has improved our personal situations, middle models, you know, my doing the it's and then i need to be, well, i mean i have a question, how do you want to have a future? and we are making it possible for you to nag them and then we are also aside from

the mobile, our women and think of other stuff. so yeah, now that i'm the owner, i want work like you do the money i bring home and share with my husband invested together in our children's education. you will see as soon as he sees an opportunity, the hard time has car will over the years. finally got a few days off after 3 weeks of really hard work. she's visiting her parents in of the just 10 kilometers from the camp via grew up with 9 siblings. here. her mother is always the 1st person she greets my mom. and how are you giving me a buy

a home at last? yeah, yeah. i am tired. i say hello . how are you? good. how are you? good. hey, we don't have anything to worry about. anybody in there. we took part of the hud into the forest for a regular olga. you did. we have finished high school 2 years ago. or 5 sisters only have a basic education. early on, we was determined to fight for her education. her parents supported her decision to have a career the, the is the only woman in the village who earns money. the

when lia is with her family, she lives the traditional life of the messiah. before picking them up at home, i'm a completely different person. i started giving you a causing difference. my obligations in the village are very different from those that work i've been trying to find out. most people have a bad opinion of my work because my side women normally don't move out of their family homes who i please work as a level. they said i change too much. somebody and i lose sight of my goals, him up into what do the 542 more thing done by delete. you know, what time you know? so this is the one that took her heels po and flow. and i've seen that from the i don't care when you see my mia, i definitely the way they see it on independent woman only causes problem is that

because she's too dominant. that's something that she can feed herself to earns her own money. get in and is independent of her family. the actually should have already been married some time ago. many, most women know betrothed to men when their children of the price of a few goats or sheep blade to you, can i your to be our traditions destroy young people's dreams. especially those of women whose dennis i always wanted to be a veterinarian said love we. everyone here just made fun of me and said, no, you want to be yvette. and you know, you ski a fleet, you're just a woman. you can become a vet, death tale. you should get married. you have children, start a family. know fuck window cornell on. i feel one on that for me, but i understood them. yeah. that they wanted to destroy my dream,

the pool. me go on that one on for cool. let me out of the education is the only way to develop a new level of consciousness among the children to know now ro, school was opened to a short time ago. in the sy, region, 200 girls and boys are being taught in mixed classes that should reinforce together this hello children. that can can i what do you think when you do this uniform a range? oh, that's right. yeah. a range or a community. my name is charity. i've got a charity law car. i'm just, i'm a ranger the most female ranger, the soonest. hit 40. mm hm. so what do you do when you find a deadline?

i think the one that missed 1154 hours and i tried to find out why she died. not that i wasn't a natural death or was he poisoned? i mean it was, he smeared or dabbling more caught in a snare to make us nest. when you take breaks or do you work all the time? so let the plug in got took off. do you see us often in the bush after lunch, we get a short break, then we have to work on weekends too. we work the whole week was only when i'm sitting there or very exhausted, and then i can have some time off and as opposed to letting much but the missile man and i went to a remote scale just like this one, had why? and today i'm standing here because i work hard for for one guys. i'll tell you nothing. everything is possible long as we're boys named and girls. as long as you

make the effort, you to welcome thanks for listening, protects you. be disciplined and keep on working hard. thank you very much and see you later. the purity as an example for the school pupils a role model, they can follow sharon's money and can determine the course of her own life. the leo didn't have any role models in her youth. no one who had dared to live the way she dreamed of. most of the women around her are dependent on their husbands.

via has turned down all offers of marriage up to now. she simply bumped the goats and sheep herself from her salary as a ranger. yeah. does this money have a kid? yes. and where is it? zillow here. did you milk this one? no. of the build a little bit. we have a little that nama, hold onto her. she has lots of milk. let's give it 9 proud. i own goats and sheep. because an arm assign culture unmarried women aren't normally allowed to own animals level. now the once you get married, you get animals as yes. so he really possibly,

but i already have some now. you'll be known, you sent me some of the that are in this respect in my family. the funny. i will not in the probably i'm no longer powerless. i that one i can ask my siblings for a favor. so you can even when i'm not here when you, when they helped me because i can pay them for it. i have something to pay or commit to guinea to them. plenty of them. so it would be a good, nice town. the little boy. oh fast. you're still young. you don't know how to grew up. see now. yeah, i know how it works. the is mother wasn't allowed to attend school as a child and she's always supported her daughter's dreams for exactly that reason.

i live in a i'm not into that. and i'm the from ivy. i love how forever you will. you know that she went to school. i don't know, i hope she'll still retrieve, even though i thank god she worked so hard and has reached i guess so much. i've always prayed for the develop by when i'm not. i'm not gonna like on the lease, still dreams of becoming a veterinarian working as a ranger is paving the way to that goal. the work of team lie, and this is also paying off for the animals. despite the government bands, poachers still hunt elephants illegally. the each year in can you alone?

$100.00 tons of ivory are confiscated. the price for test drive re, can be around $1000.00 heroes, a key low the . in the meantime, there are hardly any poachers, and the female rangers patrol area, or the team's daily presence has frightened off many a criminal in our culture, a man is only a real man when he is hills alliance lesson by means, and people only respect him when he's killed, the 10 lions that will make for the men today. don't kill lions anymore. so that's like a so we protect the line and get together with the man. man does not invalidate the

way cuz it may not. i've been part of the same lie and as i never knew there lots of positive changes, so i know that we're placing so much more value on protecting animals. and there aren't any cases of poaching anymore in this area. i do sometimes who not can be a will, can go go to come by us. sometimes someone feels like a zone, but not for economic jane to laugh at it because people are hungry for food. for, for my show or know if these cases are very rare, that the cases of the over there. and here it

is like a tortoise scenario that is a sleeping yes. yes. again, i realize and the other one the police is bless you. the only reason this won in my sight, we believe it is that those more kids with your internet and the bed for a refund, the the, the been always drive away from purity and lee is, can is a small town with almost $1000.00 residents. it's called to keep on their shopping opportunities, a clinic schools and businesses keep on a is a commercial center for the beside

the tuesday is market day. the women go shopping for ranger camp supplies. i mean, we come in the key, ryan, could tom boy, every one lovingly cause mamma, esther has set up a commissary here. this is the food we're taking with us today. hasn't been weighed not yet to hear those beings and calling me on. she'll get an oil back here. mama esther was one of the 1st people to campaign for the rights of messiah women. she can vincent international fund for animal welfare to support team lion this as a pilot project.

i'm so happy when i see all goes from the messiah villages, learn from the proves, they don't have to get married to to, i'm can work independently in, i'm build their own line. that's how you deal with. neither of them cutting who weighs has to be right. fill it up some more. lead lifted together, the good we were wrong for a long time, but now we can except that all children must go to school them as and these young people will lead us into the future. the

cartoon is coming through women from team lion. this can change our culture. we can do the same hard work is the man kwanzaa. we've got to make the young generation aware that it's a good job. the gen class and you can make yourself independent by doing it. and they say upon the, in doing that something good with the new to new issue and what key at that to your life. so we're enriching our culture, he may have to fucking those who to sign up for the remainder to india. india. we lock, i'd say the, the women make time to chat between the afternoon shift and dinner. they talk about all sorts of things, fashion men,

but also about their cultural burden. many of us side are subject to painful rituals. ok, trauma. when you get branded somebody, you'll always hutch and they become ragin supposedly me, and you're done with commodities. i say at heels faster. and if it bleeds, the little community that was true for me. but what i really had is the removal of the bottom 2 front teeth. i hate that to. i can't pronounce some words, a tool anymore. mm hm. so they to come out even though you didn't want to do the more violent re taken out when i was 4 years old. they just, i can still remember the day, isn't they used a nice susan there allegedly doing it for beauty. many said, oh, that's what they can see your messiah from the brand, unless you get to in my say, f o, some people believe you must have food with the donkey. if you've seized all taken out. one that i know is that true, scott low as well. hey, mike you, you share with the dog. right. good. can i get to the tradition that we've got to

get rid of like females or conversation and some of those i you have a say that doesn't help anyone do that when you say it's torture for the women and denies. oh they're right. come across to us and the party is mutually to the me says and so forth. you are, there are long term consequences. the young man, you're going to ask me, what's the worst that can help them get the idea center name, no one less. you can get diseases like cutting that out from the rusty razor blade for a couple and giving birth is difficult so we can do a scan and emailing why no one e e s. it's not even in my budget and that's doing. there are already positive changes in our culture because them but, and the younger generation is red. unfortunately. come my buddy. shuffle global.
