well. coming up on the program a woman risking their lives to save on animal. health and above all it was almost doing it it was a good union but then it's what they do that we need to right. to stop the poaching of writing those in south africa also coming up. what do you do when you have no water but the passion for farming. that a woman who's that money each to build

a thriving farming business. you're welcome to the program now these right in south africa need to be protected from who are constantly hans and them down for the horns about 20000 rhinos live in south africa making it the world's biggest population not a large mammals not hundreds of rhinos approached each year putting them in danger of extinction so the bali game reserve on the edge of their crew got national park is aiming to prevent a vast by trying something new on all female group of ranges who call themselves the black mamba. they are out to the rescue our correspondent. has more.

6 o'clock in the morning. is putting on the final touches before she starts work normally you don't get naked in a cool minute but your child slept with steve yeah yeah unfortunately if it didn't work. for luke of. sitting at a later lives with the rest of the black mamba crew in the camp in the game or here they are almost 30 of them after their morning routine she joins us maul group patrolling the park fence. at 12 kilometer trek on foot and they're not alone here. was it anyone on here. that looks like a bozo no one i mean did you. say does this get us will. just say kruger national park and the private pilot game reserve she had a border here the animals moved freely between the 2 areas but the game reserve 60

fans. poachers are constantly trying to force their way in there after right harvest stall too often they succeed. i'm doing this for the next generation on my kids to not doing it so if we'd lose all interest in his day next generation with something it will never know a deer a nose do we just see peaches but they will never get to see if they are right. the black mamba consider themselves the eyes and ears of the park for the sake of the rhino as they gather information observant patrol. they've been doing it for 7 years and that's time poaching has gone down significantly they also spread the worlds to local residents everyone benefits from the animals they bring jurists and jobs. i am sure that we meant how to best. because.

caring. really. just says even in comes the most dangerous part of their work. for most poachers nightfall is the beginning of the workday the black mamba us make sure their presence is known every night. one time later cross paths with soldiers. they stop at a 10 meter was a must do looking at it also getting a bit and then what they did that we need to right. and it was all seen in such cases call the parks poaching rangers. tonight as calm interrupted only by sighting of them and hippopotamus. then suddenly their truck dies just as it's passing the hippos. to that missing so

many times a song how come some of the bass because it's quite challenging because we're in the blues does meet my analogy because anytime d.d. wants to yeah. to start. success the truck comes back to life keep going until 11 pm then sleep till 6 when they again become the park's ice and. joining me now from south africa is our correspondent. worked on reports we just saw. slice to see you looking good so let's get straight to it so why do people there ryan lose so important that they would risk their lives protecting them. i mean obviously the people in the region have seen what happened in the past years and decades that the

numbers of rhinos just went down and down and behind it is of course also an economic interest because as you know the region around kruger national park really heavy lead depends on tourism thousands of tourists coming from around the world to see the wildlife of south africa to see the rhinos in particular so everybody there has a particular interest for the rhinos to be there as well so that come and they of course bring money into the country and that creates jobs so give us an idea how critical is the pollution problem there. is very critical so in the past years there's an average of $1000.00 reiners that have been poached per year the number has been going down a little bit in the last year which is a positive sign but not yet a sign that gives reason for hope it doesn't really show that everything is changing now it's just improving slightly and a mentioned it already the economic aspect and this is also the reason why people are actually getting into poaching the unemployment rate is extremely high in south

africa especially amongst young people and there's not so many opportunities there so this makes it of course easier for those people who are into poaching to get a young guys doing a job for a few $100.00 or euros and then they're into it but it's also not only like the small unemployed guys who are doing that and trying to take a chance i talk to several people who are actually saying in many cases it's very wealthy business people behind the whole business who have the funds to have to to carry out an operation like this because they also have to find out where that poaching guys are we selling the stuff to so it's very often powerful people who are behind it and they then hire local people to carry out the poaching jobs in the killing of the animals ok let's come to the responsibility of the government what other measures are they put in place to put an end to this. see this various approaches in southern africa because it's not only a south african problem it's in the entire region you have these soft approaches like the black members that we have seen remember they don't carry weapons and then

you have like very hot approaches like inboards one are where they have a shoot to kill order if the anti-poaching units come across poachers there they allowed to shoot and kill them right away they don't have to fear any court proceedings or anything like that afterwards but generally every country tries to find their own solution there is an international convention on the trade off danger of species that includes rhino horn but also ivory and fish been an interesting discussion going on in the past yes because some of the countries like now maybe a for example are complaining that they are not allowed to trade the ivory and also the right on because they are sitting on tons and tons of ivory and right on that they can ficek ated from operations from illegal trading and they don't want to burn them they actually would prefer to sell them because they argue that this was actually it would actually destroy the illegal market and then people would rather use those legal means to buy their own. i'm going to let you go now at the end because i can tell it's very windy i don't want you to be blown away so thank you very much for your insights.

growing vegetables where there's no water or soil it's not magic science all specifically called. that's the technique of one pharma now called this method be to solution for many people in south africa who are facing the west strout in more than a century feeling some 45000000 people i need food aid. is a full time a continent in her body watson has spent time she has built a successful business using hydroponics. she had a passion for farming but no access to water on land to farm on but that didn't hold back of a nice year book or rati a few years ago she did some research on the internet and for $900.00 bought a hyper pontiacs system from south africa. this system

uses no soil and hardly any water but still enables the plants to draw in just enough nutrients to florrie. i don't differ. so i have to buy water but because the federal ponds and saving. tip is the. howrah faces chronic water shortages because of aging pipes and also because a shortage of dollars to import water treatment chemicals with hydroponics the water is reduced several times and because there's no soil involved no pesticides the needed we had really had reporting finding your crop growth fast that it did with when that but that it could replace things and you tend to uscis leaves in a shorter period than when you had when they felt funny when you had plumbing in the soil so i had reporting from new york thought i might if they said no when days

the water always no rain. minissha quickly realized how small a side project could be profitable. also fantastic this is what it now makes more than a $1000.00 a month in a country where an average salary for some government workers is just around $80.00 sorry for that. what we prefer also in the market is that the the product comes with its roots. therefore it has a much longer shelf life the customer can take the product home and put it the water and it will continue to live and to thrive. many karate plans to put drupal have production in the next few months she now also trains others and hope to spread the technique i crossed zimbabwe.
