WILDLIFE & CONSERVATION



INDULGE IN NATURE
Undeniably a huge pull to the Safari Lodge is the estate’s tranquil surrounds and beautiful scenery. The vegetation structure is a mixture of different woodland and grassland depending on the soil texture and structure. Miombo, Mopane and Acacia woodlands dominate the rangeland.
The Midlands Black Rhino Conservancy (MBRC) is recognised as the second fauna and flora hot spot on native species in Zimbabwe after Chirinda forest in the Eastern highlands. The safari is home to hundreds of other wildlife including zebra, giraffes, bushbucks, impala, kudu, waterbuck, eland, big cats and over 200 species of birds including African fish eagle, hummerkop, Laughing Dove, Common Waxbill, Blue Waxbill, Quela, Francolin and Guinea fowl, masked weavers, Red-eyed Bulbul and Grey African Hornbill. Also enclosed within the premises lies the picturesque Shorai Dam, which is a major source of water for both wildlife and aquatic life. This reservoir supports a rich variety of fish species which includes cat fish, bream and bass.

Championing Black Rhino Conservation
The MBRC is also famous for its black rhino species which the continent over have always been under threat. A chromium mine located within the MBRC has increased vulnerability to the rhino in this area. The MBRC was once a sanctuary of about 60 of these magnificent creatures. Today they are less than a quarter of the initial population.
Kwanele Safari Lodge for the past decade in strategic partnership with the Black Rhino Conservancy exists to advocate for nature conservation, promoting the protection black rhino, reducing habitat fragmentation and degradation, combating poaching attempts and ensuring their survival and growth, whilst also offering education, entertainment and luxury hospitality for the discerning visitor and eco tourist. Currently there are four fully grown rhinos on the safari.
