Because you are part of the family we have some AMAZING & EXCLUSIVE specials just for you!

On the first Saturday of September every year, we celebrate International Vulture Awareness Day.

Why do we need to preserve these endangered birds?

A visit to Cango Wildlife Ranch would have introduced you to our famous hog-duo, Dolce (George) & Gabanna, who have been part of our family for most of their lives.

International Tiger Day | 29 July 2018

Tigers have always been known as the most powerful beings in the forest, yet the Javan, Bali & Caspian Tigers have not survived mankind - and things are not looking up at all for the rest of Tiger species.

Although they are protected by wildlife laws their numbers keep decreasing.

We would like to make sure that extinction remains just a word in the dictionary - but we need your help!

See some our Animal Care Team turn into their favourite animals!

MADIBA DAY | 67 minutes of Kindness

"Sometimes it falls upon a generation to be great. You can be that generation." Nelson Mandela

We often meet great people, but yesterday we had the privilege of meeting a real-life adventurer, with a flair for nothing else but freedom.

Every year on 16 June, South Africa commemorates the 1976 student uprisings to pay tribute to hundreds of youth who were brutally killed. The theme this year, “Live the Legacy: Towards a socio-economically empowered youth”.

This year we hosted more than 250 youth at our facility on a complimentary basis. We decided to focus on children, schools and projects that cater to those with special needs. We are very proud to be a fully wheelchair accessible facility and are striving to improve our tours to cater towards more varied abilities.

Calling all Teens!

To celebrate this years' Youth Day, we've launched a competition specially for our teens. An amazing 3-day behind-the-scenes visit to our 6 main departments!

The goal is to allow 6 lucky winners time to see, ask and learn about a multitude of career options, to help better equip them for their futures.

Just recently, The Cheetah Preservation Foundation (CPF), a division of the Cango Wildlife Ranch, was represented in a local Dryland Events Management cycling event where we proudly raced against extinction. The cheetah is the world's fastest land animal and they are dangerously close to extinction. Approximately 6,900 of the big cats remain in the wild. The cheetah’s future is uncertain due to a variety of threats, of which the biggest is habitat loss.
