Tracking Tips With African Park Ranger - Dierdre Opie

Trust is important when following a tracker through the African bush. Chief Ranger Dierdre Opie takes Boyd on an adventure following tracks and droppings to find rhinos. With their large size, rhinos should be easy to track in Kruger National Park, but following footprints in the thick brush won’t always lead you to them. Dierdre says it takes 5 or more years to become a master tracker, and shares that she has been charged by quite a few species you wouldn’t want to tangle with.
