"Work is underway on a massive “first-of-its-kind” rewilding project to develop
South Africa’s Loskop Dam Nature Reserve and adjacent areas into one of the
largest protected wildlife reserves in the country, providing refuge for
diverse species of threatened wildlife.

Located 110 miles east of Pretoria in north-east South Africa, Loskop Dam
Nature Reserve is home to at least 30 endangered species, including southern
white rhino, Temminck’s pangolin and Sable antelope, and unique plants, such as
the critically endangered Middelburg Cycad.

The reserve is rich in cultural heritage, too, with over 50 sites that are
important to local communities, including ancient graves."
