Background of African Animals
Africa has a huge diversity of wildlife and ecosystems but much of this has been destroyed by human encroachment.
Hunting and poaching have also played a big role in the diminishing numbers of animals, and added to this is the continual killing for traditional medicines.
Basically the only reason why some animals are alive today is because they are protected in private and national game reserves.
Wildlife in the rural and agricultural areas has been eliminated for many years, and very few have survived or adapted to the cities and farms.
Every species has a role to play in the world’s eco-system. Removal of any species threatens the survival of others that depend upon it. Eventual destruction of the animals and habit could result in the destruction of humans themselves.
Orphaned Animals
Most animals are shy and have associated humans with destruction. As a result many animals, although they exist, are rarely seen. Orphaned wild animals have been habituated to humans, and although cannot be released, can be seen and experienced by the children
Whilst humans care for humans who are maimed or injured, very few care for animals in the same condition. At the orphanage, animals can at least have a life, and at the same time play a role in education.
Orphaned animals also play a role in providing necessary research which will enable us to understand their needs for survival in the wild. This information is freely available to assist those who have wildlife sanctuaries.
Orphaned animal instil compassion in people who interact with them. Only by caring will people understand them and look after them.
Help the animals by educating people
If people are educated, they will understand the spiritual and vital importance of our environment.
If we can supply education to children, the animals will benefit in the future.
