reserve to give a way to go outside this main road describe busy cars and drive people to driving and driving so fast slaves in the us can always have a way to go out we're going to lose so many of them in the most so i'm not out or is in the fence has it it's a city where trying to protect the inner was from you in. time and again poachers dig under the fence to get into the park most of the world's $20000.00 remaining rhinos live in south africa but around $1000.00 of the animals are killed each year vs this park is home to around 80 rhinos all of them have had their orange cut off this controversial procedure is intended to protect the rhinos from poachers but the horns grow back and a large part of them cannot be removed. rhinos have a huge disability their eyesight is so poor they can't see things that are over 15 meters away this makes them easy prey. so the black members see
11:20 am
themselves as the rhinos eyes and ears. since we started in 2030 that are you know pushing to cruise by 17 percent to but really push me pushing the cruise by 73 percent so that shows that. we are changing the way things used to be and we are changing the mentality of people because those people who used to come in and put in his or come in including writing those they can now see that the members are always. the members collect information and stay in contact with the local population this helps them prevent poaching without the use of weapons. i am sure that women are the best because we are. carrying lobbying annually. we don't give information to anybody what 2 i do that.
11:21 am
but in difficult situations the members call the anti poaching unit. opens up his weapons arsenal. i don't want them to be you right. there but this is the one that we carry he see this is an assault rifle you know mate for warfare it actually and for. stuff like this this is fantastic this city when it's in the neck is easy and i carry 3 magazines and this is the but it could look like. a nice bullet this is a stop nonsense actually. you know every big fan of weapons i. had in mind i'm. not here to night i'm not against we're boys i know that you are not only that you know it is also big there for you know you must train a person their right mind seat to use
11:22 am
a weapon. that grow bigger and his team live dangerously recently he found a tracking device underneath his vehicle placed there and so poachers can ascertain his exact whereabouts while he's thankful for the information that the black mambas provide he's not totally a number of his female counterparts this is all a nice they are drama queens when they come here they think they know who they think they are mr know but they are nothing still even me i'm learning every day and to get the mean that mind change is did important. later has no time to listen to such criticism or work day is long and only ends at 11 o'clock at night. the next morning the black mamba set up a checkpoint. we want to make sure that no one in the park is in possession of weapons or dead animals. we work here in the park and have to check your
11:23 am
vehicle not because we think you've stolen something but just because those are the rules. please open up are the bad. people. do we really have to. yes we have to check everything. the members also look for ordinary wire which poachers used to set traps. so. yes and then let's say it's coming. and then at the end of that they have the impetus clutching him and hard to him but i was trying to move its top of this there was just keep going at least until it is tight and then make of the implant and it cannot breathe in and one of the days in
11:24 am
being we saw that was limping and it does not work with walking well and then we try to wanted to do right and we found that there was this knee and sleek. black mommas have already found hundreds of snares like these there and saving the lives of many animals. but in front of the stacks of recovered snares lie the skulls of dead rhinos they serve as a chilling reminder of the animals that did not survive. the says dusk falls the most dangerous part of the black mambas job begins. this is the time poachers set about their work so the women patrol every night. but it's later remembers one close encounter with poachers. they stop at 10 we go as
