Animal Welfare

Our gorgeous caracal Godiva has been in the wars with feisty Yoda and suffered a broken front leg as a result. After an operation where they inserted pins to keep the bones in place together, Godiva wore a bandage and has been kept seperate from the others while she heals. Now Yoda had demonstrated his wild instincts, we're looking into whether he can be released back into the wild.

Caracal Cubs - Rocky and Ivy

It was a normal Saturday morning and several N/a'an ku se staff were making the most of a weekend off and picking up supplies in Maerua Mall. The Mall security guards told them about 2 tiny caracals who had been seen wandering around without their mother, seemingly seperated from their mother. This is an unsafe environment for 2 small cubs to be in, with no mother to guide them or direct back to their natural habitat to feed. They are also at high risk of being taken by people wanting the cubs as "pets".
