Meet Congo, a chimp rescued a month ago, held in captivity by military men.

Meet Rebecca, 28 years old, the first girl ever to apply for a position in the Advance Force.
She has become a park Ranger one month ago, and is now training very hard to become one of our team.
After the three month training period with Major M’Poka finishes, will see whether she passes all the exams. We wish her all the best.
Thank you!

My Memorial for Ranger Gasusa

I am sorry this is not a happy post, but I would like to write today to honor Ranger Gasusa who died on the 11th of October, during an unfortunate car accident.
The picture below shows him some time just before the accident. He participated on an intelligence work carried out to stop a trafficking ring in the Mikeno Sector.

Thank you all for your constant support to the Congo Rangers - some 120 whom have died in the last 10 years in the line of service.
