Renias Mhlongo was born in the greater Kruger National Park. As a boy, he was responsible for 17 cattle, protecting them from the lions, hyenas and leopards resident in the area. His father’s rule was simple – come home with all the cows or not at all. Today, Mhlongo is recognised as one of the best wildlife trackers in the world. Alex van den Heever, his friend and colleague of 23 years, sat down with Mhlongo to hear his thoughts on diversity and transformation in South Africa.
