00:00First, they didn't believe in us.
00:08They thought we were just a bunch of women who were patrolling the fence.
00:14They didn't believe in what we were doing and they didn't think that we would do this
00:17job better, like men.
00:23But here we are.
00:24We are on top of our game.
00:25Rhinos are killed by humans for their horns.
00:26If they say the rhino horn is working, why do we not take out all our nails and crush
00:27it?
00:28Will it work?
00:29So why are we killing our rhinos?
00:45If the Mambas were to fail, I personally think it would hit us so hard.
00:49Not just the Mambas alone, but everybody, because you know, having these rhinos is part
00:53of our heritage.
00:54Every day we patrol this fence and we are doing our job because we want people to see
00:59us so that they can know that this reserve is black Mambas.
01:05And if the poachers get inside the reserve, obviously they are going to get killed because
01:13we cannot tolerate poachers coming inside the reserve and killing our rhinos.
