Celebrating World Wildlife Day 2019 in South Africa

February 28, 2019

On March 3rd, we celebrate and raise awareness of the world’s wild animals and plants with World Wildlife Day.

Rhinos at Shamwari Game Reserve

For 2019, World Wildlife Day is focused on “Life below water: for people and planet.” There are over 200,000 known species in the ocean and as many as 2 million more remain a total mystery. Oceans cover approximately 70% of the earth and are a significant source of oxygen for our planet. That’s why it’s important to raise awareness about life below water and how important marine species are to human development.

At Lion World Travel, we recognize the importance of all conservation – in the ocean and on land. In partnership with The TreadRight Foundation, we support three pillars: people, wildlife and the planet. The world’s wildlife population is balancing on a dangerous precipice, so TreadRight has partnered with leading wildlife organizations to work to protect and rehabilitate elephant, rhino, and big cat populations around the world.

Recently, Lucille Sive, CEO of The Travel Corporation’s (TTC) Africa Division visited Shamwari Private Game Reserve located in the Eastern Cape in South Africa. Shamwari Game Reserve is also one of the most successful private conservation initiatives in Southern Africa.

At Shamwari, Lucille enjoyed a day on safari with their knowledgeable game ranger, Minolan. In addition to spotting three (lion, rhinoceros and elephant) of the Big Five, they also enjoyed seeing all of the zebras, giraffes and antelope. They capped off their afternoon adventure with a classic sundowner in the middle of the bush with an unforgettable backdrop of the African sunset.

For a truly wildlife and conservation experience, consider our Tented Safari in Style vacation where you’ll journey to the wildlife kingdom of Shamwari Game Reserve.
