00:07:47I don't even have to get wet. The
00:07:50The basics like getting down on the
00:07:51the board. So we'll be down there
00:07:54there paddling. So you paddle and and then when you get up, you push
00:07:57push up. First push up and then one
00:08:01one leg at the front. Yeah. And then
00:08:02then you turn basically. And then
00:08:05then I turn. So you see, so your your foot's there. So this is how
00:08:08how you'd get up. You'd do this.
00:08:11this. So you do that and that you you turn that way. Yeah. OK. But
00:08:15But it's all like in a sequence. sequence. So when you do this pop
00:08:19pop up like this. Yeah. It has to to be quick. It has to be quick.
00:08:22quick. The transition between your your pop up and standing up has to
00:08:26to be quick because if you if you're
00:08:27you're slow, you're gonna end up
00:08:30up falling. OK, time to give it a
00:08:33a go for real.
00:09:02Turns out it's actually easier to stand up on a surfboard on dry
00:09:06dry land. But still, I really enjoyed

00:09:53Amazing. Being back in South Africa, Africa, having been based here with
00:09:56with the BBC over 20 years ago. I'm
00:09:59I'm reminded of just how stunningly
00:10:02stunningly beautiful it is. Before
00:10:05Before Katherine and I left in 2006,
00:10:082006, we went on the holiday of a a lifetime to Kruger National Park
00:10:11Park to see the big game animals animals for which South Africa is
00:10:15is so famous. 20 years on, some of
00:10:18of these iconic animals are in ever
00:10:20ever increasing danger. Lawrence.
00:10:23Lawrence. Yes. Hey, Clive. Good to
00:10:25to see you. How are you doing? Lawrence Lawrence Reed and his wife, Kerry.
00:10:29Kerry. Run a private game reserve reserve helping to protect precious
00:10:33precious wildlife. So what animals animals do you have here? So we've
00:10:36we've got hippos, giraffe. OK. Wildebeest.
00:10:39Wildebeest. Zebra. We've got a leopard leopard that comes through now and
00:10:43and again. Really? But is he going going to come through today? Oh,
00:10:47Oh, I hope so. Maybe we can see him. him. Yeah. We'll see him from the
00:10:50the safety of this vehicle. We've We've also got rhinos on the farm.
00:10:53farm. Rhinos? Yeah, yeah. Which is
00:10:56is what brought me here to this farm.
00:10:59farm. It was after a 2014 poaching
00:11:02poaching incident in which two rhinos rhinos died that Lawrence approached
00:11:05approached the owner to offer his
00:11:07his help. 11 years later, Lawrence
00:11:09Lawrence now runs things. But the
00:11:11the threat of hunters is ever present.
00:11:18present. So where did your love of of rhinos come from? I don't know.
00:11:22know. They seem so majestic and helpless.
00:11:26helpless. Helpless. Even though they're they're so big. Yeah. And they just
00:11:30just need someone to look after them.
00:11:31them. I don't know. The African rhino
00:11:35rhino is a critically endangered endangered species, and while South
00:11:39South Africa has the largest population population in the world, it is also
00:11:41also a hotspot for poachers with
00:11:44with 420 animals killed in 2024 alone.
00:11:47alone. When you're poaching a rhino, rhino, you're not eating poaching
00:11:50poaching it for meat. You're poaching
00:11:53poaching it for greed for the rhino
00:11:55rhino horn. So it's the horn. Yeah.
00:11:57Yeah. The poachers are after. 100%
00:12:00100% poached rhino horn is often often used in traditional medicines
00:12:04medicines in Asia. Studies have consistently consistently shown that it holds
00:12:07holds no medicinal qualities whatsoever, whatsoever, but it can still fetch
00:12:10fetch tens of thousands of pounds pounds per kilo on the black market.
00:12:14market. Have you had any poaching poaching here? No, not with the rhinos
00:12:18rhinos because we have what I call
00:12:21call boots on the ground. We have have cars following them all the
00:12:24the time. And they sort of rangers.
00:12:26rangers. Yeah. So they rhino minders. minders. Rhino minders you call them.
00:12:29them. Yes, yes. Right. How many of of them do you have? Well, each group
00:12:33group of rhinos has Amanda with them
00:12:35them 24/7. OK. Yeah. The game reserve
00:12:42reserve is almost 7500 acres small small by African standards, but home
00:12:46home to hundreds of species roaming
00:12:50roaming freely. It's breathtaking.
00:13:00breathtaking. Oh, look at that. Animals

00:16:23the smaller animals here are always
00:16:25always a target for individuals setting
00:16:28setting snares. And as we're filming.
00:16:31filming. Romeo Tango coming from from hotel. A call comes through
00:16:34through on the radio. Whereabouts Whereabouts are you on that fence

00:17:23they're going to come across. But,
00:17:26But, you know, on this occasion,
00:17:28occasion, they've done their job. job. So I just I think take them
00:17:32them to the gate and then get confirmation confirmation that he does work for
00:17:35for them. If he does, then drop them them off at Marilla. OK. All right.
00:17:38right. OK. Thank you. Sir Lawrence,
00:17:44Lawrence, what do you think? What's What's the story? OK. So he works
00:17:47works for that. The trust. Right.
00:17:49Right. So the trust has is part of of this farm here. But he works on
00:17:53on another farm and he was taking taking a shortcut through the farm.
00:17:57farm. So we'll get confirmation from
00:17:59from the person that he works for. for. And if everything's 100%, we'll
00:18:03we'll drop him on the other side side of the farm where he was heading
00:18:05heading for. And he still could have have been setting snares. So we'd
00:18:08we'd have to check the area. But
00:18:10But he had no evidence of stuff or
00:18:13or snares or things like that. But But it's an ever present danger, danger, isn't it? That's what you're
00:18:17you're having to deal with, the possibility possibility that people will come
00:18:20come onto this land and try and take
00:18:23take what doesn't belong to them.
00:18:25them. 100% yes. Follow up searches
00:18:29searches didn't find any snares, snares, so the suspected poacher
00:18:31poacher was let off with a warning.
00:18:35warning. Lawrence and his team are are doing such vital work. I really
00:18:38really hope the animals here continue
