Shot on location in the Balule & Timbavati Nature Reserves in South Africa for Etihad, the Black Mambas are the first all-female (now with some males!) anti-poaching unit in the world. Living in communal compounds for weeks at a time, they are tight-knit group, patrolling the reserve constantly in order to
discourage poachers from killing precious wildlife.

Their incredible conservation work has been recognised the world over and the Mambas themselves are the epitome of strength and resilience.
