Powerful eco-thriller documentary RHINO narrated by Tom Hardy
Editor 
With only 6000 black rhinos left on earth, one dedicated wildlife ranger, Kiloku, has made it his life mission to protect the species against all odds.
With around 5% of the global population being poached each year, Kiloku’s team in Kenya has not lost a single rhino in nearly 10 years… A remarkable achievement, but one that does not come without consequences. They are running out of space. Hemmed in by ruthless bandits, the rhinos at his sanctuary risk turning on each other in a deathmatch for territory.
With the help of a recently qualified ranger named Rita, the pair launch an audacious plan to move a group of the formidable herd to a new safe haven, 60 miles west. A potentially deadly mission, but one that the team are willing to risk their lives for in order to launch a new population, and further Kenya’s incredible ongoing conservation efforts.
Highlighting the daily struggles experienced by those risking their lives to protect biodiversity, while simultaneously giving voice to those on the other side of the armed conflict, this hard- hitting, authentic feature – crafted from four years of living and working alongside Kenya’s conservancy community – is both timely and urgent, as banditry violence spirals out of control, and the demand for illicit rhino horn climbs ever higher.
RAISING FURTHER AWARENESS: THE INTERNATIONAL RANGER FEDERATION
A rhino is killed every 16 hours. But every 48 hours, a ranger also dies in the line of duty.
The International Ranger Federation (IRF) was established in 1992 to advance the work of rangers and promote their critical role in conservation. Founded by rangers, IRF facilitates a global network which nurture’s a common bond among protected area workers and provides space for rangers to share knowledge and best practice. Through our thirty years of operation, we have established a network of over 150 ranger associations in over 50 countries, representing an estimated 80,000 rangers.
Through our network we understand the challenges that rangers face, and their aspirations for the future. We acknowledge the profound responsibility of this position and actively use our broad knowledge base to support and promote rangers. We are recognised as the representative voice, and primary advocate, for rangers globally. Together, we can drive positive change that enhances conservation efforts and ensures a sustainable future for
generations to come.
