EPISODE 4 “GUARDIANS AT THE GATE”

We journey into Zambia’s Kafue National Park, one of Africa’s largest and most remote wildernesses, now managed by African Parks to combat habitat loss, poaching, and human encroachment. At their headquarters, we learn about their large-scale conservation efforts before meeting Dr. Matt Becker, founder of the Zambian Carnivore Programme, who shares his science-based strategies to protect lions. The episode concludes with a boat ride up the Kafue River to visit Musekese Conservation, exploring how community engagement, education, and empowerment are helping secure a sustainable future for both people and wildlife.
