WILD LIFE- Turtle tracking These magnificent creatures return to the Maputuland coastline every year, having swum the length of the African continent. Research has shown that the mother returns to the same beach and that eggs are laid within meters of where the mother emerged as a hatchling years previously. Guests can view the turtles as they are laying and every precaution is taken to ensure the turtles are not disturbed. Turtle tracking is offered from November to end February in the evenings. There are a number of different turtles found off the coast of Maputuland but only two of these lay their eggs on the Maputuland coast: the Leatherback and Loggerhead turtles. The hatchlings emerge from the nest about 60 days after being laid and it is incredible to watch the youngsters emerge from the nest simultaneously. It’s a struggle for survival as they dig 40cm to the surface and crawl, en mass, some 50m to the sea, where they often fall prey to kingfish and seabirds. The survival rate is less than one in 50. It is an unforgettable experience to witness these enormous creatures laying their eggs
- White Rhino conservation program This program is offered in a northern natal game reserve. Part of management and anti-poaching measures is to ensure that every rhino is identifiable so that the population can be monitored effectively. A hands on experience for guests, working with the Vet, while the rhino is being notched and micro chipped. The Vet will educate guests on threats to rhino conservation and answer all their question. Guests will be given information about the reserve, conservation status of white rhino and the need to protect them. 1-10 pax Program available all year round with 24 hour notice - Black Rhino conservation program Black Rhino’s are extremely temperamental and more endangered than white rhino. The game reserve is part of the WWF Black Rhino Range expansion project. - Rwanda Gorilla programme The Mountain Gorilla is one of the most endangered ape species in the world, there are only approximately 350 Mountain Gorilla’s alive today. Two small areas in the Northwest and Southwest of Rwanda between the Virunga Volcanoes straddling the Rwanda/Uganda border, one can view these magnificent animals. It is a heart warming experience that you will never forget, there is more meaning and understanding in exchanging a glance with a gorilla, than with any other animal. Ecotourism is the Gorilla’s only hope for survival! - Great White and Tiger Shark programmes Experience these magnificent creatures up close and personal from a safe distance in a cage. See the world famous great whites and their athletic breaches as they hunt the Cape Fur seals. There are very few places in the world that one can view Tiger Sharks in their natural environment. Individuals who have been to all these places like Gerard Soury, have commented that nowhere else in the world can one have the quality & safe viewing as on the Aliwal Shoal - Save the sharks projects: Sharklife is a non-profit organisation which addresses alarming exploitation of both shark populations and ocean fishers in South African waters. Sharklife is trying through scientific research, education and awareness to bring about positive change in the current destructive trends of ocean exploitation, developing a compassionate desire to conserve sharks by altering public misconceptions about sharks and replacing the “Jaws” syndrome with positive understanding and respect. Urgent Shark funds required: • Shark fishing regulation amendment (project cost R40 000) • Study of Bull Sharks within the Mbashe River (project cost R15000) |
