Haritha: Haritha, or often known as “Hari” has a passion for wild life and the need for conservation. This is what drove him into this field.

They have both been working as guides in different national parks in Sri Lanka. Hari received most of his guiding education in South Africa. He is a qualified nature guide and a fully qualified trails guide in Africa. The need for conservation and awareness that Knuckles needed made him return to his home land.
