00:00Finding fresh meat being smoked on a rack, and a variety of valuable tools the poachers
00:07have left behind, all indicate to Mfana that this is an active poacher's camp.
00:13Mfana knows that this camp is not empty because it has been abandoned.
00:17It is empty because the poachers have most likely taken meat to sell in the market.
00:22But they will return for the rest.
00:27You have to take out your GPS, record into your GPS how many cams that you find.
00:42It helps as you're coming back from Badrop to sit down with your APU and explaining it,
00:49and give them the GPS coordinator to just go there where you find the camp.
01:00With a full assessment of the camp, Mfana heads back to base camp to brief the team
01:05and come up with a plan to stop these poachers from doing any more damage.
01:13Mfana purposely allows his rangers to tackle this mission on their own.
01:23He knows that they have received sufficient training and enough experience to be able
01:28to track the poachers and set up a successful ambush on their own.
01:51The APU team needs to approach the poachers' camp on foot, keeping noise to a minimum.
02:18I have the GPS.
02:23I can see the camp from here.
02:28I can see the camp from here.
02:32I can see the camp from here.
02:35I can see the camp from here.
02:48I can see the camp from here.
02:56I can see the camp from here.
02:58I'm going to go inside.
02:59I will look around a bit and I will know where they might be.
03:02I'm going to go inside.
03:04I will look around a bit and I will know where they might be.
03:08Okay.
03:09Okay.
03:11I have been at a camp for three, four, five, ten days.
03:15I have spent the last three days preparing my gun.
03:17The Rangers could wait for days for the poachers to return to their camp.
03:23Patience is an essential virtue for successful operations.
