Happy World Nature Conservation Day!!
Here at White Elephant, we are extremely proud of the partnerships we have built to achieve the goal we all believe in... and that is in the young youth of today. It is our responsibility to give them the experiences and knowledge of our environment, wildlife and cultures because no one will protect what they don’t care about; and no one will care about what they have never experienced. By giving them these opportunities and speaking out about the beauty and fragility of the natural world, we are teaching our youth to love and understand nature, which will inspire them to take action and protect it
“We cannot always build the future for our youth, but we can build our youth for the future” David Attenborough

Every year on the first Saturday of September White Elephant takes part in the Vulture Count Day that was initiated by Ezemvelo KwaZulu-Natal Wildlife in 2003.

The Vulture Awareness Day takes place on the same day worldwide and bird enthusiasts are encouraged to take part in helping to conserve this important species!
All effort goes into the conservation and therefore the preservation of our vulture population species as they are an integral part of our ecosystem.
