Sanbona Wildlife Reserve

Unknown
Flora at Sanbona - Over 55 percent of the Little Karoo is moderately degraded and only 18 percent in a pristine condition. Lower soil nutrients and loss of palatable plant species are results of this degradation and the challenge is developing the correct balance between improving soil and plant quality, herbivore densities and predator populations in order to facilitate the rehabilitation of the ecosystem.

Savanna Vulture project - The results from the Savanna Vulture Project have greatly improved our general understanding of what is needed to conserve vultures in the Greater Kruger National Park. These findings have also informed the Multi-species Action Plan for Africa-Eurasian Vultures, which will guide conservation actions for these birds in Southern Africa. Today, work continues on various aspects of vulture biology in the Lowveld.

The Sanbona African Tribal Art by Michael Fitzgerald

Fine Art - Continuing the great traditions of conservation that Sanbona uphold, the Fitzgerald Collection at Sanbona could not have found a more wonderful home where it can be viewed in spectacular surrounds. The collection is the only one of its kind in South Africa that can be viewed by the public. By putting the collection on show in Sanbona, the wonderous world of African Tribal Art is made accessible to all who wish to engage with it and further enhance the splendid African experience of the spectacular Sanbona Wildlife Reserve.
