About the project
Tenikwa has its beginnings in 2002 when the owners started rehabilitating injured birds in a wooden shed behind their house. By now we are one of the largest wildlife rehabilitation centers in the region and have a specialized wildlife hospital. Tenikwa takes in injured or abandoned wildlife, rehabs them and then releases them back to the wild where they belong. All programs have a focus on the indigenous wild cats of South Africa and guests can learn about the challenges the wildlife is facing. Tenikwa employs over 30 permanent members of the local community and gate takings are used to fund our rehabilitation and conservation programs. Tenikwa stands for ethical wildlife tourism and responsible wildlife experiences.
