TOUGH ZEBRA LOVE

"I've seen this scenario many times over. It happens mostly when the female/mare is giving birth for the first time. If it wasn't the male/stallion father, it would have killed the foul as soon as that placenta kissed the ground to ensure the female comes to heat for mating as soon as possible. The stallion is also protecting the foal from the confused mare that has just experienced giving birth for the first time. Although it looks cruel, that foul has been handed a chance to live by its father after rousing it to take its first breath and encouraging it to stand up and walk, which is normal for Zebras as they move all the time alongside Wildebeest."- Comment

MAKGADIKGADI, THE LARGEST SALT PAN IN THE WORLD BOTSWANA πŸ‡§πŸ‡Ό

The Makgadikgadi Pan, a salt pan situated in the middle of the dry savanna of north-eastern Botswana, is one of the largest salt flats in the world. The pan is all that remains of the formerly enormous Lake Makgadikgadi, which once covered an area larger than Switzerland, but dried up tens of thousands of years ago

The Makgadikgadi pans are among the largest in the world, with Ntwetwe Pan measuring approximately 75 miles (120 km) east-west and 100 miles (160 km)
northeast-southwest and the smaller Sowa Pan about 45 miles (70 km) wide and 70 miles (110 km) long.

MAIN TOURIST ATTRACTIONS

1.A layer of blue-green algae grows in the pans. Several big flocks of flamingos come to feed upon it.

2.Best wildlife viewing moths near the river area. Wildebeest and herds of Zebra migrate toward the Boteti River for water. The migraine is an annual spectacle that attracts tourists from around the world.

3.Makgadikgadi Epic.
A sports and adventure tourism event with activities such as Skydiving and tandem jumps, Fun Quad biking, horse riding and camping held annually in mid July.

WORLD BREAKING NEWS!

First Critically Endangered Black Rhino Calf Born at Care for Wild to Two Orphaned Poaching Survivors

Rescued and rehabilitated rhino orphan Phoebe has given birth to her first calf at Care for Wild Rhino Sanctuary in South Africa. This is an extraordinary milestone in rhino conservation and a historic and emotional moment for Petronel and the Care for Wild team.

While this marks the 19th calf born at Care for Wild, it is the very first black rhino calf born to two rehabilitated orphans of poaching.

Rescued in 2017 after poachers killed her mother, Phoebe was brought to Care for Wild for extensive rehabilitation and care. She was later joined by another black rhino orphan, Ratu, in early 2018. After their rehabilitation, they entered a complex rewilding and reintroduction program and have now welcomed their first calf.

This year, Care for Wild celebrates 10 years of dedicated rhino conservationβ€”10 years of immense effort, passion, resilience, hard work and determination. Witnessing this tiny, critically endangered black rhino calf safe with his mom and dad is incredibly exciting and so unbelievably humbling. What a privilege and a blessing.

Thank you all who stand beside us on this journey
