Conservation and Wildlife News

8/3/2017

Through Chem Chem Foundation's efforts to protect the wildlife in the Chem Chem Concession adjoining Tarangire National Park, Tanzania, lion populations have increased. This, in-turn, has intensified human-wildlife conflict as lions target the livestock of neighboring villages. One of the foundation's objectives is to build 60 bomas (enclosures) to protect free-roaming livestock at night, which would indirectly protect the lions. Each boma costs $500 and it is hoped that they will be complete by the end of Chem Chem Lodge's safari season.

 

 

Damaraland Camp on the Torra Conservancy is an example of the positive results that can be garnered when ecotourism and local communities join forces –  increased employment, higher standards of living and increased wildlife. Learn more here.

 

 

 

Abu Camp's elephant reintroduction program in the Okavango Delta, Botswana continues to thrive with the birth of a new calf to a former member of the Abu herd. The elephant cow, Gikka, was spotted with her one-month-old calf at the end of February – her third calf since she and her daughter Naya were released into the Okavango Delta from the Abu Herd in July 2011.

 

 

Cottar's 1920's Camp – Into the bush, we go

Cottars Camp is now offering a romantic al fresco dinner, with a bit of adventure stirred in. After an exciting day of game viewing, enjoy a sumptuous meal under the stars deep in the bushveld,  surrounded by its remarkable sights, sounds and smells.

 

 

Or, perhaps you would prefer to languish in a bush bath. A traditional style canvas tub is set on a Persian rug in the open-air outside your tent. Enjoy bubble-filled luxury, while sipping champagne and overlooking the wild beauty of the Maasai Mara.

"I don't want realism. I want magic...."
