The African elephant population is facing an unprecedented elephant poaching epidemic across the Zambezi river delta. To protect these gentle giants, the Ivan Carter conservation team journeys to Coutada Mozambique to combat the multi-billion dollar illegal ivory black market trade. Tracking these dangerous networks requires elite survival tactics, from tracking with vultures circling over fresh crime scenes to executing a tactical anti poaching ambush when hunters return for their hidden stashes. When this savanna elephant wildlife documentary uncovers a bullet wound on a running cow, a high-stakes rescue mission mobilizes a wildlife veterinarian helicopter darting crew to treat the injury in the heart of the swamplands. By tracking elephant poachers on foot, rangers stand on the front lines to secure a future for these iconic giants.
Watch as Ivan Carter and concessionaire Mark Haldane set a silent perimeter trap to catch active syndicate members red-handed before they escape to the main roads.
