UNSUNG HEROES | Yankari Rangers

Meet Jonah and Yusef, two of the remarkable rangers stationed at Yankari Game Reserve in Nigeria, committed to protecting their wildlife and community. 🇳🇬 From patrolling the vast wilderness to enforcing laws and collecting vital data, their dedication knows no bounds. But it wasn't always this way. Before the Wildlife Conservation Society (WCS) intervention, the team was divided, and morale was low. After rigorous training and new ranger uniforms, a transformation occurred. The rangers became a united force, driven by newfound purpose and unwavering confidence in their mission. While illegal bushmeat trade poses a significant challenge to these brave rangers, they remain steadfast believing in the long lasting impacts of their work. 🦁🌿 "Holding the tusk of an elephant makes me really sad. And it makes me realise that if we don't continue to do what we are doing very well and improve on it, it means in the next few years, we might have no more elephants. But when I see what we are doing and the results we are getting, I feel very hopeful," shares Nachamada Geoffrey, Former WCS Yankari Director. Beyond their law enforcement duties, the rangers visit local communities, raising awareness about the dire consequences of poaching and deforestation. Their efforts go beyond protecting wildlife; they inspire change and foster harmony between humans and nature.
