Craig Spencer


















#CelebratingWomen

Craig Spencer Founded The Black Mambas Anti-Poaching Unit in South Africa.

Its members are women.

In patriarchal South Africa, creating an all-woman unit was such a radical idea, even the Unit's families wondered, "How can they do a man's job?"

In 2015, The Black Mambas Anti-Poaching Unit was named Champions of the Earth. It is the top environmental honor given by the United Nations.

Mr. Spencer is also Head Warden and Senior Ecologist at the Balule Nature Reserve.
