Trabajos salvajes: Namibia
Marlice van Vuuren creció en el santuario de vida salvaje de Harnas en Namibia. Fue aquí donde desarrolló su amor por la vida silvestre, especialmente los animales heridos, huérfanos y ‘problemáticos’.
Elephants
Comenzamos con una breve mirada a la difícil situación de los elefantes en Namibia: la disminución de su número y las razones de ello, como situaciones de conflicto entre agricultores y elefantes.
Cheetahs
At Naankuse the conservation of cheetahs involves researching them in the wild, managing them in captivity, rehabilitation back into nature and managing conflict situations with farmers.
Rhino's & Zebra's
Como en otras partes de África, los rinocerontes de Namibia están gravemente amenazados por la caza furtiva. Rudie y Marlice se unen a conservacionistas y funcionarios del Departamento de Medio Ambiente y Turismo en un lugar sospechoso.
Wild Dog & Hyena
El perro salvaje africano, también conocido como perros pintados, es una de las especies animales más amenazadas de Namibia, catalogada como en peligro crítico por la UICN. Por lo tanto, se hace todo lo posible para conservarlos.
Marlice & her mother
For Marlice, a visit to Harnas, her mother's Wildlife Sanctuary where she grew up, is a trip down memory lane as well as an opportunity to reconnect with old friends.
A Day in te Life of Rudie
Rudie has his job cut out for the day. In order to move Jupiter, a caracal that arrived at Naankuse 6 months ago to a bigger enclosure Wild Dogs have to be moved to a cheetah enclosure and the cheetahs into a caracal.
Tommy Collard
When it comes to tour guides in Namibia Tommy Collard is a legend. Based in Swakopmund his area of expertise are the surrounding sand dunes of the Namib Desert, the oldest desert in the world.
A Day in the Life of Marlice
Marlice often gets calls from members of the public who have animals that they can't look after any more - she then fetches these animals and take them to Naankuse where they are cared for. Today is such a day.
Costal Conservation
Marlice, Rudie and their kids visit the Walvis Bay region on the West coast of Namibia to explore this desolate shoreline and meet some of the people who are experts in the fauna and flora there.
Harnas
Marlice's mother, Marieta needs some assistance with two animals at Harnas - her wildlife sanctuary, and Marlice and Rudie offer their help. One is a wild female baboon that comes into the semi-tame baboons enclosure in search of food.
Baboons
The one animal species that Marlice gets the most of in at Naankuse is baboons. The episode starts with her arriving at Naankuse with a baby baboon.
Lions
Rudie and Marlice fly to Hobatere, a concession area on the Western border of the Etosha National Park. Here they meet with Mesag Saal - a farmer, land owner and conservationist.
Kids in Conservation
Marlice brings her kids up in the way she grew up - with a love and respect for animals. Her sons Zacheo and Nicklai and their friends are fortunate to be on a place like Naankuse where they are in constant contact with a large variety animals.
