About this Cause

A day in the life of a ranger’s dog involves jumping into helicopters, tracking poachers in the national parks or searching for illegal firearms or rhino horn potentially hidden in vehicles entering or leaving the park. Ranger’s dogs are often the first respondents to incidences of suspected poaching.
