Addo’s Historic Elephant Relocation
On a scale that has never been seen before, WeWild Africa and its partners have taken a monumental step in elephant conservation by orchestrating the first-ever relocation of family groups of elephants from Addo Elephant National Park to three different reserves. This groundbreaking initiative, addressing overpopulation and habitat degradation, reconnected the pachyderms with their ancestral lands and enriched the biodiversity of their new homes.
Partner Highlight: Metapopulation Initiative, University of Pretoria, the Wildlife Emergency Fund, and Andrew Malcolm Films
Today we’re relocating a young cheetah from our long-standing partner, The Rietvlei Nature Reserve, to a new habitat in the Lowveld, a vital step in ensuring genetic diversity and long-term survival of the world’s fastest land mammal. A special thank you to The Metapopulation Initiative, The University of Pretoria, and the Wildlife Emergency Fund for their collaboration in conservation over the years.
Ego-Free Collaboration: Uniting for the Rhino
Showcasing a powerful synergy between government, private entities, and NGOs, we helped dehorn the last two rhinos in the Lionspruit region. Provincial governments often do not have the appropriate funds for such operations. That’s where we, at WeWild Africa, in collaboration with DCM Surfaces, step in – to fill the gaps and ensure that no animal is left vulnerable due to lack of resources.
Dehorning of Loskop Dam’s Entire Rhino Population
The collaboration between MTPA and WeWild Africa continues to deliver outstanding conservation results.
Innovative Tech Meets Ancient Reptiles
WeWild Africa uses cutting-edge GPS technology to unlock the secrets of behavior and rewilding success of the often overlooked ancient Nile Crocodiles. In collaboration with our long-standing partner DCM Surfaces, we’re leading the way in innovative approaches to support the rewilding of every species in Africa.
