Lioness. Whats the name of the lionesses . The lion is the most dangerous animal, and were the bravest women in the world. Thats why we call ourselves lionesses. After all, we are women. If we cant say we are lying like the its 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, theres a local lender and say, thats a zebra who print fixed. It went this way, same, gra, zebras who arent close and be signed. Theyre like, donkey is a guide to come. Thats why theyre easy to recognize. So isnt differentiate that . Ive 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 ive 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 basetti National Park. Its on the border between kenya and tanzania. The the park itself is a reserved almost 400 square kilometers in size. It has the densest population of wild animals in east africa. The of course, the wild animals repeatedly make their way into the neighboring messiah villages. And 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 lived here side by side of the book a. Its clear wild animal because accidents again and again em send us an item, a come, especially the lions and elements wake of them buy me enough. I never heard of somebody mess. Im telling you is the most important thing for us is to protect the wild animals and ensure theyre doing well and not being threatened by po jersey. No, i know my body not be a feel for me. Tell them that she could not how i know more for 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 40 lia comes from one of these beside villages. Shes been a ranger now for 6 months. I buy mean money for 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. Kimball, if they pick up your sense, most of the time to disappear into the bush and eat, but they can also attack you before you even realize theyre theyre 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. Theyve counted as many as 2000 wild animals in 6 months. So most of our heard are they have the most trouble with a wildlife because they come across the animals again and again. The one that when did the lions of attack your call night last week, a fellow eagle lion for the world for her. And then yes, with her teeth, but with close, watching so on i will. Yes, hes old and we that hes already attached my her twice as i get into the me just attacks but cant really get the way you heard some within the last 60 has teeth with i got a lot more love happens to the cough illness. I find it on this hill, its head was to and when you sleep on this hill, youll put it at the bottom of it and then youre going to how many animals have you lost already . Have them got, i dont know what all anessa loads is. The same good. How do you deal with the number on the side . But what can i do against the not the case when i get it, its not easy. One, a lion kills a call that the owner is your one would like to kill by and get some of that because it killed his call. And then, you know, i am a ranger, but im also a teacher for the community money. Then you come, they trust me and its not in the act on my lease or a number. Yeah, me, me. I teach them how to deal with the wild animals. Whats the level community, what im taking the opinion off was i did them. But what i found, but i know i know my party, its important to team lion is that they have close contact with the surrounding villages. Its funny, we would be the same level and hold it in front of your face. Hold it really tight and take the model. Ill show you that you can do it. Now i always do it at home. When i go and thats why im in the lab. The women trust us to me chat with them when we visit. Oh, we just couldnt get, oh, can i . What does that student then let me ask them if they notice anything while they were collecting firewood . Which animals did they say yeah, look at the guess study. What to magical doesnt meant. Theyre usually the best informed about whats going on around them. Now on the way i conducted the nice that you visiting again. Given one of them for the while, youre always very welcome the law or did you make them yourselves . Arent they heavy . You know, we dont know them saying that is that a james and the know it would be too short when its finished or close it into a bracelet like me to them was about the buffalo, like one comes to a watering hole, then goes back into the bush and then the father, you know, we dont fetch water every day. I really do the women in the massage and culture have little say and dont work for pay someone to book when the and i was 10 years old and i understood it wasnt easy to be a woman in the must die culture lice. I watched my mother the number month how she worked every day, like you, she got up and milk the cows or that she left. And then she got us ready for school and heard the cows out to great young man in the mind. You know, she fetched water and brought the couch back in their shelter. She was responsible for every thing that goes one just off. She worked from 4 am to 11 at night and then communion. And because the visual climbs furious, that the men look down on us women that, oh wow, know, have, im assuming one of these say we dont do anything on the new york fund. They say we cant even do housework, right. A daniele and kazi, is it or find a job fine, like we have on t lion, is that because the new im or meds, you welcome underneath the 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 messiahs daily routine separates the genders the to the messiah main, and the can. Living together with their female colleagues took some getting used to at the start and their culture flows contact with women is limited to family members. You always have to be informed about whats going on. Thats right. Could you stand up so i can move forward . Well no, no, no community. The men in our village are very different from our colleagues sides because we live closely with our co workers. So im not like with siblings next to me. Thats why the people in the villages dont have a very good opinion about 1 oclock, one of give you up to feedback and they look down on us and also about us. Its really not very supportive to stand that any way to come by that. But ive been getting the pray is true, send to the hopefully god will send you twins such as pre sending carla weiss protect the government. Everyone should 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 prayer is a small child, because thats traditionally a male domain. She and lee had to apply to the village elders to get their jobs on team lioness. They also have to prove they were physically fit and well educated. Lead 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 to they came to understand how good we were here for work. How about a no other reason you owe on us . Give us its february. The sun rises at 6 45 am. Its time for roll call. Good, go, dont. Dont be done. Running on the bus monitor, went to it. It went to the couple lines, a coupon, the quest. All or no, not the beginning of a male rangers, didnt believe wed be up to the challenges, encore and the newcomer had to go is that the job is so hard a quote, but we have to hike through the bush for our and i came there. My client that knew the thought wed never and she thought because we were women, is the single one, the funds of they didnt know any women before. So did this type of work to help them being that we are the 1st all cleanser south is i believe thats why i is only louder review straight on your leg due to i dont that was awful. I dont really know if it was well own 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 elephant says approach the village. The elephant cows are restless because they are young. With that, its a dangerous situation for the female rangers combo santa can you 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 book on waiting now among the attending to somebody as well 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 work. 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 wouldnt 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, the, and the, the 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. But now we are also aside from the mobile are women and think of other stuff. So yeah, now that im the owner, i want work like you do the money i bring home and share with my husband invested together in our childrens education. You will hear the units he sees as an opportunity. The hard time has car will over the years. Finally got a few days off after 3 weeks of really hard work. Shes 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 dont 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 man, you quote the phone, picking them up at home. Im a completely different person. I started giving you a causing difference. My obligations in the village are very different from those that work, then thats fine. Most people have a bad opinion of my work because my side women normally dont move out of their family homes. When police work as a level, they said i change too much by then and i lose sight of my goals, him up and up to the up or 2 more thing. Nobody to know what time you know. So this is a whole quantum field po and the flow and i assume that from the i dont care when you see why me and the way they see it. An independent woman only causes problem is that because shes too dominant. Thats something that she can feed herself and keep to her as her own money and i get to and is independent of her family. We actually should have already been married some time ago. Many, most women, though betrothed to men, when their children, the price of a few goats or sheep laid to equal i your to be our traditions destroy young peoples 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, youre just a woman. You can become a better. Thats probably you should get married. You have children, start a family. Know fuck window. Cornell and i feel well enough to go, but i understood them. Yeah. That they wanted to destroy my dream, the pool me go on that one on so 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 say this uniform a range . Oh, thats right. Yeah. A range or a purity to my name is charity. Look out of charity low car. Im just, im a ranger. The most female ranger the same as the 40. Mm hm. So what do you do when you find a deadline . I think the one that miss levan 51st, and i tried to find out why she died. Not that i wasnt a natural guy whos in the 5th or was he poisoned . I mean it was he smeared or doub 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 im 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 im standing here because i work hard for, for what guys. Ill tell you nothing. Everything is possible long as were boys. Mind yeah, yeah. And girls. As long as you make the effort, youre welcome. Thanks for listening. God protects you. Be disciplined and keep on working hard. Thank you very much and see you later about the purity as an example for the School Pupils a role model, they can follow sharons money and can determine the course of her own life. The leo didnt have any role models in her youth. No one who 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, maam . You have a kid . Yes. And where is it . Zillow here. Did you milk this one . No. More. No, dont spill the little bit. We have little doubt nama. Hold onto her, she has lots of milk. Lets give his 9 proud i own goats and sheep. Because an arm assign culture unmarried women are normally allowed to own animals level now. So once you get married, you get animals as yes. Can you say very quickly, but i already have some now. Youll be known, youre sending some of the batteries, respect to my family. Funny. Not in. No, no, probably. Im no longer powerless that i that one. I can ask my siblings for a favor. So you can even when im not here, but they helped me because i can pay them for it. I have something to pay or the letters you gave me to them. Plenty of them. That would be a good match, found the little boy. Oh fast, youre still young. You dont know how to grew up. See now. Yeah, i know how it works. The is mother wasnt allowed to attend school as a child and shes always supported her daughters dreams for exactly that reason. Not into that and let me know more about it and then well have some ivy. I love how forever you will. You know that she went to school and whatnot, and i hope shell still retrieve even though i thank god she worked so hard and has read to you so much. Ive always prayed for the by when im not, im not going to lay down by 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 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. The teams 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 me and people only respect him when hes killed. The 10 lions that will make for the men today dont kill lions anymore. So thats like a lead protecting the lion get together with the man. Not the medicine that would be the cause of it. Hey man, ive been part of the same lion s and i never knew there been lots of positive changes. So i know were placing so much more value on protecting animals. And there arent any cases of poaching anymore in this area. I do some things uh, not comparable, canoga to come by us. Sometimes someone feels like a zone uh, but not for economic jane to laugh at it because people are hungry for food to fulfill my show or know if these cases are very rare that the cases of the over there are it is like a tortoise area that is a sleeping . Yes. Yes. Again, i realize. And the other one, the police is bless you. The only reason im letting my say we believe it as those more kids with you internet and bed inside the house. They dont need the, the been always drive away from purity and lee is, can, is a small town with almost 1000 residents.

Mamma esther was one of the 1st people to campaign for the rights of messiah women. She can vince the International Fund for Animal Welfare to support the team lion this as a pilot project. Im so happy when i see all goes from the messiah villages. Learn from the proves they dont have to get married to ok.

Fill it up, some more lead lifted together, the didnt we were wrong for a long time, but now we can except that all children must go to school them. 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 as the man kwanzaa. Weve got to make the young generation aware that its a good job to be done. And you can make yourself independent by doing it and they say upon the india and that something good with the new to new issue. And what key at that to your, your life to you. So were enriching our culture. He may have to fucking those who to sign up for the remainder to india. India. We, like i said, 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 messiah are subject to painful rituals. Ok, trauma. When you get branded somebody, youll always touch and they become ragin supposedly me. And youre done. We can, well, you can say at heels faster if it bleeds, and then ill send you that. That was true for me. But what i really had is the removal of the bottom 2 front teeth. My hate up to i comp to noun, some was a tool anymore and they took them out even though you didnt want it like the more violent be taken out when i was 4 years old.

Right . The good. Can i get this out there are tradition that weve got to get rid of like female circumcision. And some of those i you know they say that doesnt help any wonder that the states torture for the women and denies. Oh theyre right. Come across to us. The party is mutually so why dont you give me says this up for you are, there are long term consequences. The young man, youre going to ask me as um, whats the worst that can happen inside the center in the 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 some good to a scant. Yeah, but i didnt know why no one e e s, as im not even in my budget and thats doing there are already positive changes in our culture because them but. And the Younger Generation is red hill or tripler jodi choker, my buddy. The not good must die cultural tradition to him, but most we should get rid office that can be say, how much less job id melisha. Female genital mutilation shows how long the process of change can take. Its still being practiced as a matter of course and remote regions. Today, the giraffes. News and ellisons move through regions populated by the messiah as they forage and search for water. The predators like even us approach the villages to the messiahs, goats and sheep are easy prey, but village residents lives can be threatened as well. When people are attacked, the female rangers are always called the of the readings. I am wondering, my names last time. We spent the whole day out with the goats and sheep. We were leading them to water whole night. I watched them carefully until the evening until we got lost in them. Hygienist showed up all at once and scattered the herd newbold in italy, and they said the boy ran one way and i ran the other listen, im okay, what sort of a might, i mean, what are you most afraid of them when the wild animals nothing. Tell me about it. When the hyenas and elephants came closer, my boy started to crying and then i thought i was going to die. The, the rainy season ends in february. Then a great many animals come into the female rangers area, the, the water holes are full, the that means really long working days for purity. The, the rest of the team, the use the opportunity to observe the animals up close the do you still know what hes cooled . Nope, ive forgotten some water buffalo were getting really close. And thats to move 0 bowls. The, the this is their small. Theyve just come out of the water, but the way you might decide that ones aggressive in the youre right, a fighter for the us. If you get out now is a little bit because youre the yeah. And then when i talk to purity is speaking from experience once she was suddenly charged by a water buffalo. She only survived because she played dead the the resist, im going to be in my work. We continually get really close to wild animals going to say dangerous animal sofa level. It could do if this elephant charges full speed. Yeah. At the food in my life is in danger. We see here. So laser lights on that got he hasnt noticed us because hes eating as you look at it, may he then say didnt you come to was a you can only study the animals behavior and, and find out how theyre doing it. Look like getting close to them. You definitely know the animal is getting used to me in my uniform jungle now that reinforces our connection to the previous close. The do the my last time and i should struggle doing something good maple. So my, my food have moved and going so many families. So yes, a and most of these can go to, i would like to do something good. The, because the thinking, you know. Mm hm. What involve my experience is that the role of women is becoming stronger and id like to encourage girls to go their own way. Cooperation on and living together with man works well. You and you and theres nothing objectionable about it. Took one no, it doesnt mean we dont respect our culture. Meaning the quite the opposite. The country i would like our culture to change vehicle. But, but the morality upon my new suitable fine because you from oh yeah, the cheap light and this goes out brimming with confidence and energy or to play soccer with their male colleagues after a full working day and even if they lose their still winners. Meanwhile, one year, cuz it doesnt mean i hope with our work, we are able to secure animal population. He goes up by to find the assistance for their cars and at the same time get our community to reconsider if you had them yet through today by the nation.
