No more Elephant Back Safaris

29/12/2017

0 Comments

 
As of 01 January 2018 Wild Horizons will cease to offer elephant-back safaris, replacing this activity with a conservation experience, at the Wild Horizons Wildlife Sanctuary.   

Work will continue with the Zimbabwe National Parks and Wildlife Management Authority, Victoria Falls Wildlife Trust and numerous other conservation bodies to provide a refuge for elephants in distress. The rehabilitation and release work will also continuem as the mission has always been to create a facility which would enable the rehabilitation and ultimate release all the elephants at the Sanctuary.
 
An “Elephant Encounter” will be offered from January 2018, which focusses on a conservation experience, offering visitors the opportunity to spend time walking through the bush with the elephants, observing them up close in the wild and getting to know their individual characters whilst learning more about the importance of elephant conservation from the guides who have journeyed with them through their lives and gained a unique insight along the way.
