As drought and climate change drive prey species to their lowest numbers since 1999 Human / Wildlife conflicts in North Western Namibia are on the rise.

Led by the son of a Himba tribal leader who dedicates his life to saving both people and predators, we journey deep into some of the most remote and inhospitable terrain in this rugged region.

Poacher turned protector, Linus Mbomboro leads a team of fearless Lion rangers through the rocky riverbeds and mountains of Kaokoland. These Himba heroes chase Lions from kraals in the dead of night, track problem animals and protect communities using both new and old technology.

We meet the victim of a gruesome attack and visit the farmers who live in fear. The killer who turned to the trigger long before Rangers intervened tells us his tale.

Through conflict and tranquillity, we explore the lives of the traditional Himba herdsmen and women, who find peace and love for their land while dodging daily deadly conflicts with desert lions.

This is their home, let them tell you their stories.
