Day 4: Moholoholo and Game Drive

Stop At: Moholoholo Wildlife Rehabilitation Centre, R531, Hoedspruit South Africa
After breakfast, we drive to Moholoholo Rehabilitation Centre for orphaned and injured animals. The animals at the centre are in enclosed pens and have been rehabilitated but are not yet able to be released into the wild as they are incapable of fending for themselves.

They serve a good purpose insofar as tourists can see that the project has successfully rehabilitated an animal that was destined to otherwise die - these animals arrive at Moholoholo as the result of being orphaned, poisoned, caught in poachers’ snares etc.

By visiting the centre we are supporting the important conservation work they do.
