Lion Conservation has become a global issue with a species population reduction of 30-50% over the last two decades mainly due to habitat loss and human wildlife conflict.
WGCC is home to the Grevy’s Zebra, and is a long standing conservation area established with the support of San Diego Zoo.
At Giraffe Manor, we contribute a percentage of your accommodation charge towards assisting the African Fund for Endangered Wildlife (AFEW). The African Fund for Endangered Wildlife have set up the Giraffe Centre as a breeding centre for the endangered Rothschild Giraffe, and the Centre has now evolved to operate conservation and educational programs for Kenyan school children, as well as the proctection, breeding and re-introduction of Rothschild's Giraffe in the wild.
We have also made efforts to enhance the survival of rhinos by sponsoring selected rangers to gain training on rhino monitoring in South Africa. We are in the process of setting up a task force to protect and manage the huge population of rhinos in the Solio Game Reserve, a territory rich in these wonderful animals. With an increase in demand for horn, rhinos are under threat more than ever.
