We treat and train our animals to prepare them for release into their natural habitat within TANAPA protected parks. Our wildlife sanctuary also doubles as an endangered species reintroduction platform to translocate animals to parts of its natural range where populations have significantly declined or been lost. Aiming to establish a viable population within translocated areas. Our most recent animals for release are our lions.

Arusha National Park is Tanzania’s most accessible park because it is conveniently located and also the best place for walking and canoeing safaris.

Arusha National Park doesn’t have large predators but hosts Africa’s largest giraffe population, a variety of primates, and a number of large herbivores. This little Jewel of Tanzania is host to Mount Meru (4566m) which is a popular option for mountaineers who do not want to hike the high Kilimanjaro Mountain.

Less visited than the popular safari destinations in Tanzania, Arusha National Park has a beautiful landscape with an incredible variety of flora and fauna. The vegetation of the park is formed as a blend from the swamp, grassland, tropical and montane forest.
