Who are these 49 people that make up the Advance Force?The 49 people are Congolese Rangers belonging to the Institut Congolais pour la Conservation de la Nature, which is the government department responsible for the management of national parks in the DR Congo. These are all professional rangers with several years’ experience. They were chosen from the 480 rangers in Virunga National Park after a rigorous selection training to form an elite unit of rangers under the command of Ellie Mondima, who scored the highest in the training.
