Kariega Game Reserve has acquired rewilded farmland that is now considered pristine habitat for many of Africa’s iconic native species. This means the introduction of a cheetah coalition, a second pride of lions, and significant migration space for many other species including iconic African elephants. The reserve will drop strategic fencing to create one 9,000-hectare wilderness in the western region of the reserve, which opens species migration corridors and creates new breeding territory for the wild inhabitants.

Most importantly, this rewilded land is perfectly suited for white and black rhinoceros.

Black rhinos are listed as critically endangered, with barely 5,000 remaining in the wild. Establishing and protecting a breeding population in the Eastern Cape is a major win for conservation of this species.

With more land and animals also comes the critical need for further protection. Save the Horns will support Global Conservation Force’s efforts to place anti-poaching unit rangers on the newly expanded grounds of the reserve. This includes patrols by vehicle, on foot, k-9 units, and horse mounted units. GCF’s ranger program centers around recruiting, training, and employing members of the surrounding community, which provides economic stimulation and a conservation-based career path that deters many from getting involved with poaching syndicates. Protections also include technological advancements in animal tagging and tracking.
