"Rangers.. are usually loners and are seldom influential or powerful people. But without these frontline troops and the quiet and selfless care they bring the animal and natural world, sometimes risking their lives, the wilful destruction of animal life in most countries would be horrendous. In the case of many species, (mountain gorillas in the Congo and Uganda for instance), it would be terminal. I find that I cannot ignore a man and a vision such as [Sean's]. People such as Sean are the people among us who truly make the difference, if we don�t support them then we betray an essential aspect of our humanity. Besides, a world without wild creatures is unthinkable."
- Bryce Courtenay, Author

"I wouldn't wipe my arse with the New Internationalist. Absorbing is one thing. Absorbent is another."
- Julian Morrow - The Chaser

"The New Internationalist is exactly the sort of intelligent, committed and progressive publication which here at The Chaser, we strongly disapprove of."
- Julian Morrow - The Chaser

"The New Internationalist magazine helps keep me in touch with the earth and all its people."

The Thin Green Line
Would you risk your life for the planet?

In 2004 Australian Park Ranger Sean Willmore sold his car, remortgaged his house and travelled the world for 14 months to bring you the story of the sometimes life-threatening challenges his colleagues face each day.

In some of the world's most breathtaking protected areas, share this behind the scenes, unique and very personal view of men and women of The Thin Green Line as they talk to one of their own. You'll experience their world as a ranger talking to rangers, all of whom are also husbands, wives, mothers, fathers - and it's never a 9 to 5 job.

Witness the compelling stories of men and women who every day cope with corruption, ignorance, politics and greed. Go side-by-side on patrol; experience their sacrifice, dedication, passion, fears, joys, exhilaration, love, despair, anguish, camaraderie ... and hope.

This is an Access All Areas pass - you'll go off the tourist trail to ride with the guardians of the world's protected natural gems as they encounter elephant charges in South Africa, walk with armed patrols defending the Mountain Gorillas of Central Africa and hang from a helicopter high above the Rockies to pluck an injured hiker to safety.

Features music from the John Butler Trio, Xavier Rudd, Blue King Brown, Cousin Leonard and many more...

Proceeds from this DVD go to the families of rangers killed protecting wildlife, and other ranger/conservation programs.

DVD, 82 mins plus extras.
