RESTORED PROTECTED PRESERVED WILD
Integrating environmental, animal and marine conservation with rural social development describes Zuka best; caring for wilderness, wildlife and people is multifaceted. There are many models. This is ours.
Zuka Private Game Reserve is the cornerstone property of a pioneering land assembly founded by Tara and Jessica Getty in 2001. Today, this progressive rewilding project has thus far expanded to 10,300 hectares of environmentally restored and protected northern Zululand and stands as a beacon of light as to what is possible on our planet.

THIS LAND
We are 10500 hectares of restored, protected and conserved wilderness in South Africa!
We almost touch the Indian Ocean and we share a boundary with @isimangaliso, a UNESCO World Heritiage Site as well as @andbeyondphinda.
We have a diversity of habitats: open grassy savannah landscapes, wetland systems, Sand Forest, mountains, rivers and woodland supporting a myriad of biodiversity from tiny butterflies to herds of elephant!
We are in a collective of dynamic like-minded, pioneering, conservationists and protectors of all living things.
This land is Zuka Private Game Reserve.

PANGOLIN
We have been part of an initiative to re-establish Temmink’s ground pangolin across Zuka Private Game Reserve, And Beyond Phinda, and the wider Munywana Conservancy.
In partnership with African Pangolin Working Group, these gorgeous creatures, the world’s most trafficked mammal, have been retrieved, rehabilitated and reintroduced here.
They have been locally extinct for decades, so we LOVE seeing them thriving in their natural habitat again!

REGENERATIVE
Khula Farm is our new regenerative farm here on the edge of the reserve!
We have been deeply inspired by @kisstheground and @carolebamford to approach growing healthy organic food for our reserve while protecting and improving soil health, critical for the planet.
Soil health and the natural wonders of soil catalysed the birth of our ecology venture - Getty Asterism!
We are thrilled to start our Khula Farm journey and how this integrates with Getty Asterism.

BLACK RHINO
Diceros bicornis is the scientific name for the black rhino – also potentially a name for a #jkrowling wizard!
This tree browsing, smaller relation to the southern white rhino is officially “critically endangered” and we work hard as a collective with @andbeyondphinda and @munywana to successfully protect and conserve this wonderful shy species.

“It seems to me that the natural world is the greatest source of excitement;
the greatest source of visual beauty;
the greatest source of intellectual interest.
It is the greatest source of so much in life that makes life worlth living.”
