Synopsis

Narrator Keith David presents the story of one of today's most compelling dramas... the life and death struggles to save Africa's endangered animals. When poachers wiped out the last black rhino seen in Botswana in 1990, Botswana's government deployed a small army to track down the Shaile gang, a merciless band of tribesman who butcher animals for the illegal sale of valuable ivory, and what many believe to be the potent aphrodisiac of the rhino's horn. Famed filmmakers Dereck and Beverly Joubert were given total access to the Botswana Defense Force to explore this ongoing battle.
