The AfriCat Foundation was founded in 1991 and officially registered as a non-profit organisation in August 1993. AfriCat has grown significantly since then and what started out primarily as an animal welfare organisation has over the years, identified the need to include a focus on education and research as being essential to our mission – the long-term conservation of large carnivores in Namibia. We concentrate on four objectives in working towards our mission: • To create awareness and promote the tolerance of large carnivores among the farming communities by assisting farmers in effective farm management techniques, including targeting problem predators as opposed to indiscriminate removal • To educate youth about large carnivores and environmental awareness • To research large carnivores, particularly cheetahs and leopards, on farmland and in captivity • To provide humane shelter, treatment and care for orphaned and injured animals OKONJIMA is the home of the AfriCat Foundation and is committed to long-term conservation of Namibia’s large carnivores. We are situated halfway between Windhoek and Etosha National Park. Over a 1070 predators have been saved since 1993! 86% have been released back into the wild. OKONJIMA offers: • 5 different CAMPS / ACCOMMODATION FACILITIES: o The Grand African House - The Villa o The Exclusive Bush Suite o The Luxury Bush Camp o The Homestead – Main Camp o The Private Campsite – The Omboroko AFRICAT North (previously Afri-Leo Foundation) supports Carnivore Conservation & Communities through Environmental Education, Human-Wildlife Conflict Resolution and Research. Situated 40km north of Kamanjab , AfriCat North is dedicated to the conservation and protection of Namibia’s carnivores, especially the lion.
