YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

The War in Congo is the deadliest since World War II, killing more than 5 million people. But throughout the conflict, a remarkable group of Rangers have remained, fighting to protect Congo's Gorillas and other wildlife and natural resources. In a stunning turnaround, these rangers are saving endangered species and Congo's bio-diverse forest, and are even transforming the local economy, cutting off revenue streams to the various rebel groups operating there.

VICE's Ben Anderson trained and patrolled with the rangers over 10 years ago. He returned to see the remarkable progress they're making.
