LEITAH Mkhabela
'BLACK MAMBA' RANGER
The Black Mambas are Africa's first all-female anti-poaching unit, founded in 2013, with the purpose of protecting wildlife in South Africa, mainly in the regions of the Balule Nature Reserve and the Greater Kruger National Park. To shine a light on the impact The Black Mambas are making; Since 2013, more than 1500 deadly snares have been dismantled and seized, and record numbers of poachers' camps destroyed. As a result, the number of snaring and poaching incidents in Balule Nature Reserve, where the Black Mambas operate, has fallen by 76%.
