On every single reserve in Africa where rhinos exist, an armed boundary war is being fought under the radar.
In this gripping episode, wildlife investigator Ivan Carter goes deep into the front lines of South Africa's rhino war. The journey begins with a heart-pounding rescue mission in the Zululand Rhino Reserve to locate, dart, and save a terrified, orphaned black rhino calf whose nursing mother was brutally taken by poachers.
To understand why this crisis is spreading, Ivan conducts a comparative field study to answer a critical question: Why are white rhinos poached significantly more than black rhinos? By tracking both species on foot, we expose the extreme behavioral differences between the highly volatile, thicket-dwelling black rhino and the more social, placid white rhino.
Finally, the investigation shifts to Kruger National Park alongside Section Ranger Richard Saari. From analyzing a horrific double-massacre crime scene to launching an immediate, high-speed tracking pursuit using specialized Malinois k9 units and aerial helicopter support, see what it truly takes to bring armed syndicate poachers to justice.
