Poaching - the daily threat to park rangers

A war is being waged around the world to try and protect wildlife and our remaining natural areas.

At the frontline of this war, 1000 rangers have been killed in 10 years – mostly by commercial poachers. Sean Willmore has worked with park rangers in over 50 countries. He gives a very sobering insight into the threats to rangers; but also shares funny stories about their interactions with animals ... and he promises hope.
