We have established an Environmental Education Centre on the reserve that comprises a lecture hall, exhibit area for skeletons, photographs and other items of educational interest, a raptor and vulture information centre, enclosures with captive owls, raptors and vultures that are non-rehabilitatable, a small clinic and reptile exhibition centre. ![]() Lecture by Peter Snyman to local school group at the reserve. Specialised game guard courses have also been held assisting the Department of Agriculture, Land and the Environment with the training of their personnel. Hand in hand with the courses at our centre goes the work in the communities themselves. We give lectures at schools, clubs, various institutions and interaction and discussions are held with local tribal authorities, committees and organisations. The local farming communities play a key role in the conservation of the environment and as such we encourage them to work together with the environmental education programme. A close relationship between our project and the local farming community has been forged. |
