The
critically endangered geometric tortoise is dependent upon its renosterveld
habitat – of which 97% has already been destroyed. Most of these South
African tortoises survive on private farms. Working very closely with the
farm owners since 1992, we have protected remaining key populations and
habitat. In 2001, thanks to the generosity and support of one of these
farmers, we established The Tortoise Farm (79 acres).
This project is of a sensitive nature and we purposely limit information. |
