The speed at which Brice Mouapele moves through the dense tropical undergrowth is impressive. The humidity is stifling, but Mouapele appears unaffected as his small frame, clad in camouflage fatigues, brushes past jungle vines while he clutches his rifle.

He is also the first pygmy to turn from elephant poacher to protector.
