The trailer for our documentary is out. This feature length documentary, ‘The Edge of Existence’ is about human wildlife conflict in Africa, an untold story and an issue that affects the livelihood of people, the conservation of protected areas and the wildlife that inhabits them.

Conservation is complex, and the relationship between man and beast is too. There are so many issues that stem from here, and it is important that we understand these if we are going to forge a way forward together that enables people and wildlife to coexist and flourish.
