Palmwag against poaching & Grootberg Lodge Conservation Fund

Taking a stand on conservation and against poaching.

The local Palmwag community have responded swiftly to the recent rhino poaching in the area and are assisting with finding and apprehending the guilty parties. The #Khoadi /Hoas conservancy, (owner of Grootberg Lodge) is also investing funds in training local shepherds to monitor the rhinos on a daily basis and report data back to Save the Rhino Trust.

The Grootberg Lodge augments its already ongoing efforts in conservation by continuing to donate a percentage of funds from tourist activities to a Conservation Fund. Farmers will be compensated for livestock losses caused by predators.
