Impossible route in and impossible route out. Ol pejeta conservancys canine unit are just one of the many groups across africa taking up the fight against poaching.

Hello, sweetheart. Good girl. 0k, there you go. And then at the back here, its rough, you can touch at the back here. Oh, yeah at least you are able to lay your hands on what is the last of a being on the planet. It is sad and i hope it doesnt happen again to another species. And why are they so rare, james . Um, its basically poaching, which has just been driven by human greed and greed in different forms greed for power, greed for their medicinal aspects.

Right here, we have one. Its humbling to meet najin and fatu, but frustrating
