Special talks in the Wanyama Hut in Wanyama Village will be held at at 1pm, 2pm and 3pm. Pick up a Rhino Identification card to help name our 3 White Rhino. Guests may take a ride on ZUFARI and venture into Africa. Visitors may take part in some Arts & Crafts and even enter a Raffle for a special prize!
It will be a special day learning about the rhinos and raising awareness about the plight of rhinos in the wild. Noah’s Ark will raise money for the UK based charity ‘Helping Rhinos’ through selling rhino cookies, mud cakes and other baked goods. There will be a raffle to win a rhino adoption for a year.
One of the ways in which guests will learn about the plight of the rhinos is by counting the number of rhino images displayed to represent how many rhino have been poached this year.
The Giraffe talk at 2pm will be extended to include a special talk about the rhinos also. The rhinos will also be receiving a special enrichment treat so look out for that in their outside field.
The special day will include:
