Eefforts have been made to encourage the local communities to preserve Namibia's endangered wildlife population. We are devoted to protect our fragile grassland and habitat and even the local farmers have joined in effort. Threatened animals are rescued, following a range of complete health check ups, cared for and or relocated to other conservation friendly farms with proper habitat and food chain.

The emphasis of N/a'ankusê ecological understanding of the savannah and bush-veldt, and the surrounding area, is an ecological understanding and it will leave you with a sense of fulfillment and achievement. In order to preserve the soul of this farmland, we incorporated a landscape garden of only indigenous plants and trees.

It is currently provides a safe sanctuary for Lions, Leopards, Cheetahs, Wild Dogs within large purpose built enclosures which are surrounded by electric fencing powered by solar panels. The smaller animals such as Baboons, Meerkats, Mongoose and African Wild Cats are cared for by volunteers from across the world who pay to stay as working guests in order to gain hands on experience with Namibian wildlife and who play an important role in maintaining and building new enclosures, feeding and grooming the animals and partaking in the rescue and release (when possible) of animals that come to N/a'ankusê.
