We get an update from Damien, the Australian founder & CEO of the IAPF, which primarily exists to protect rhinos and elephants from the ruthless organised crime syndicates that deal in rhino horn and elephant tusks.  He explains what's developed in southern Africa since he was here in the 3CR studio in May last year.  This includes the recent vicious attacks on two IAPF rangers in Mozambique, IAPF's new accredited training program for anti-poaching rangers, and South Africa's plans to legalise the trade in rhino horn.  Damien also reveals how the mind of a hunter works, by drawing on his own past.
