Animal Wish-list

With such a wide variety of animals to care for, we are always drawing up lists about what we need most.
A lot of the items we need, is unfortunately not stocked in South Africa, and makes it hard for us to supplement.

For this reason, our Animal Department shares with us their important wish-list, and we share it wide and far to see if we can gather these items through the caring and willing nature of our followers.

Sometimes we receive items via mail but we've also had visitors bring wish-list items all the way from their home country to SA!
