Yes, we see her quite often,
she's been around this area for years.
So we gave her a name.
This is such a great place
to view rhinos.
Unlike white rhinos,
black rhinos are reclusive
solitary animals,
seldom seen during the day.
But they do need to drink daily,
so they usually head
for the waterholes after sunset.
Using infra red lights
and special viewing equipment,
I hope to catch a glimpse
of the elusive mammals.
Let's see if Kevin or I
will have better luck...
See, a jackal!
He must have heard something.
Hey, look at that, a leopard.
That's very unusual,
we seldom see them around here.
Did you hear that?
rhinos approaching.
A jackal, a leopard, a white rhino,
all in a few minutes.
There are more coming.
This place is amazing, it's incredible.
I wonder how Mara is doing?
Still nothing.
I know, but sitting and waiting
for rhinos is a patience game.
Look to the left Kevin, two more Rhinos.
What a night...
You are really lucky,
look at their mouths.
These are black rhinos.
These majestic animal.
I can't believe poachers would
shoot them just for their horns...
But not if we shoot them first!
That's one way to look at it.
They are very skittish,
look at their ears.
They know we are here, that's for sure.
Mara to the right...
Oh look, how wonderful.
A mother and her calf.
We must be very quiet.
See how nervous they are.
Oh no, they are leaving already.
What was that?
Something flashing over there.
It's an infra red camera trap.
That's how the researchers keep track
Oh look here is another
male who's approaching.
This is very unique to see
so many rhinos in one place.
You are very fortunate,
sometimes we don't see any
for a week or more.
Oh shoot...
I hit my lamp against the tablet.
It is sad to see how
such fearless animal
have become so nervous
because of poaching.
Leaving the Canyon region,
we head west to the Waterberg plateau,
the home of the Cheetah Conservation
research center
and one of the largest
protected habitats
for the fastest predator on earth.
Like black rhinos,
Cheetahs are on the verge of extinction.
About half of the 6000
remaining specimens
are found in Namibia.
This predator has a large hunting range
often spanning over 150 km.
The abundant wildlife
and low population density
make Namibia an ideal sanctuary
for this majestic cat.
Contrary to lion and leopard
who from time to time
may be a threat to humans,
cheetah represent no danger to people,
but they do kill domestic animals
and are considered vermin
by the local farmers.
In Southern Africa,
