Wildlife Protection

At Suni-Ridge we do not utilise our wildlife as a resource.
Many wildlife reserves in South Africa use these "protected" animals for hunting, for the meat market or to be sold to others as breeding herds of wildlife for the same market.

This is a cruel exercise as wildlife families are displaced, mothers are often separated from young and beautiful animals in their prime are are killed for some hunter's wall.

Because of the high poverty levels, wildlife is also killed for meat (or for money, when it can be sold). You can see what we're currently doing about providing a sanctuary for the wildlife in and around Suni-Ridge.

You can also read about what happened to Silky the Zebra and her Mom, and about "Old Boy" Suni-Ridge's first territorial Zebra stallion.
