Keeping Up with the Kruger

We get a full on introduction to the Kruger Park and get an understanding of how wild this place actually is. Elephant rampages, monkeys stealing food and a hippo ruining a game of golf? Welcome to the Kruger!

One can't experience the bush any better, than on foot. We go on an exclusive walking trail to track lion with some of Kruger's most experienced Rangers. Meanwhile back at Kruger main gate, the Protection Services have picked up some potential poachers with some very mysterious objects.

The Greater Kruger has an abundance of one of Africa's most majestic animals, the elephant. This episode we have an explosive chase as a helicopter team and Veterinary technicians attempt to relocate a rouge elephant. This operation is dangerous and one mammoth task.

Monitoring of lion prides is crucial to track the health and numbers of cats within the Kruger. We get a first-hand glimpse into the technical process that is involved and the many complications that can get in the way of the stressful and dangerous research procedures.

This episode we investigate the most tragic of current events in the Kruger. Rhino poaching. We get right into the crime scene and see how the investigation team tracks the evidence and looks for any clues to give some insight into the death of a rhino.

Dr Bossie and his team attempt the gruelling task of tracking down, darting and operating on a pregnant sable that may be carrying a dead calf. This is an extremely volatile and complicated procedure, and one false move, could easily mean the loss of a life.
