Save the Rhino Trust Namibia Protecting the desert-adapted black rhino of the Kunene Region in Namibia

Living outside of a fenced protected area, the Kunene’s rhinos are considered to be the largest truly free-ranging black rhino population left in the world. These rhino are protected and monitored by staff from Save the Rhino Trust, in conjunction with Namibia’s Ministry of Environment and Tourism (MET) and local communities. Four dedicated SRT patrolling and monitoring teams cover the core rhino range area of 25,000 square kilometres to deter poaching and to record detailed data on individual rhino, such as age, s*x, rhino horn size and shape, ear notches and condition.

Vast, rugged and relentless, Kunene is a landscape where every kilometre matters. Across this remote terrain, Save the Rhino Trust’s teams work alongside communities and Rhino Guardians to monitor and protect Namibia’s free-roaming black rhino.

In a place this wild, every track, sighting and patrol counts.

Rangers are Africa’s unsung heroes, taking on diverse roles as conservationists, teachers, community support workers, leaders and much more.

On 19th September 2026, the Wildlife Ranger Challenge, organised by Tusk , brought rangers and supporters together to celebrate solidarity, connection, and camaraderie within the ranger profession. The event also helped raise vital funds for the frontline guardians of Africa’s biodiversity.

Congratulations to all the rangers who took part, and to everyone who supported this incredible initiative!

SRT supported 38 female rangers through a dedicated three-day wellness programme, focusing on resilience, self-care, stress management, communication and personal growth.

Led in part by SRT’s Lorna Dax, this work is helping pioneer the connection between ranger wellbeing and sustainable conservation, with the approach now being replicated in other African countries.
