He said:<\/p>\n

“Our rhinos are covered 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.<\/p>\n

He added that the reserve took the money it generated and pumped it back into conservation and anti-poaching initiatives.<\/p>\n

“It is absolutely important and crucial for us to protect our animals, especially our endangered animals, from poachers. We must protect our heritage and show future generations our national assets while helping our country’s economy. We must show local and international tourists how we take care of our wildlife,” Munien said.<\/p>\n

In addition, the reserve is doing its bit to reduce unemployment by employing locals.<\/p>\n

“Our staff are local and here, everyone works to make conservation a reality,” he added.<\/p>\n

“Finding, training and keeping the right guides is essential,” he said. “We look first for people with the right personality and then provide the training they need.”<\/p>\n

Shamwari recently acquired an additional 1 338 hectares of land which will benefit existing species and allow it to reintroduce other once-indigenous species, such as the spotted hyenas and, in the future, African Wild Dog.<\/p>\n
