At Moholoholo we are often faced with the difficult decision of what to do with an injured or poisoned animal which will not be able to be released back into the wild.
As a result, we have a number of ‘permanent residents’ that reside at the centre at our own cost and are used as ‘ambassadors’ for their species. Members of the public are therefore able to get an ‘up close and personal’ experience of these incredible creatures, while we have the ability to practically demonstrate to the public the problems that wildlife is facing as well as being able to share information about each animal here at the Centre.
Enjoy an early morning or afternoon bush walk with one of our qualified field guides. Our friendly guides will share their passion with you as you learn some fascinating facts about the environment and its inhabitants that surround you.
