We’ve got a growing problem at Mokolodi… and we couldn’t be happier about it! 😂🧩

Our Corporate Family keeps growing, and every new name on our sponsor board represents another partnership helping us make a difference.

From wildlife conservation and environmental education to sustainability initiatives, these partnerships help us turn big ambitions into real impact. 🌿🦏

A huge thank you to our incredible corporate partners for believing in our mission, and to Signarama Gaborone for creating the magnetic signage that allows our board to grow alongside our family!

🦅 Always at the scene of the crime… but never the culprit! 👀

Vultures may have a bad reputation, but these misunderstood birds are actually some of nature’s greatest superheroes! 🦸‍♂️🌍

In this episode of Mokolodi Minute, we’re getting up close with our feathered clean-up crew to discover why they’re so important to our ecosystems and how Mokolodi Nature Reserve helps give injured and poisoned vultures a second chance at life. ❤️

🎬 Watch until the end and tell us: Do vultures deserve a better reputation?

Big mouths, big personalities… and absolutely no respect for personal bathroom privacy. 🦛💩

This episode of Mokolodi Minute is all about hippos and the rather messy business of making their presence known! 😂

Watch until the end for a little maybe from our hippo family… 👀🤫

The rain interrupted us while filming our planned Mokolodi Minute, but luckily, we knew exactly how to tell if it was raining.

Naturally, we thought we’d share this very important piece of knowledge with you. Consider this your unofficial Mokolodi Minute! **a

Even our rubbish has its own department. ♻️

At Mokolodi, we don’t just separate our waste. We teach children visiting our Education Centre about sustainable waste management as part of our environmental education programme—lessons they can take home and put into practice.

Thank you to CMA CGM for sponsoring our recycling project and believing in our vision for a cleaner Botswana.

We asked some kids a few crazy questions about rhinos… and they got creative! 😂🦏🌸

Their imaginations made us smile—and reminded us why inspiring a love for wildlife starts young. 💚

A future with rhinos is a future worth protecting. 🦏💚

This World Rhino Day, we celebrate these extraordinary animals and the people working to keep them safe. At Mokolodi, we believe inspiring children to care about wildlife is part of protecting its future.

Let’s make sure the next generation knows rhinos beyond the pages of a textbook. 🌿

OVER P800,000 RAISED FOR ENVIRONMENTAL EDUCATION 🌿💚

Because of the extraordinary generosity of our sponsors, donors and supporters, our Black Tie Evening raised over P800,000 in support of the Mokolodi Education Centre.

These funds will help us continue welcoming children to Mokolodi, giving them the opportunity to experience nature first-hand, learn about Botswana’s wildlife and understand why protecting it matters.

Every contribution helps us inspire the next generation of conservationists — and that impact reaches far beyond one evening.

From all of us at Mokolodi Nature Reserve, thank you for believing in our work, our children and Botswana’s future. 🦏🌿
