At Ol Pejeta in Kenya’s central highlands, within an ecosystem that supports many endangered species, northern white rhinos Najin and Fatu have become the last hope for their kind. After decades of poaching for their horns, these two rhinos now live under 24-hour guard.

Skip the chocolate—give a truly wild gift this Easter!

At Ol Pejeta, we’re home to the last two northern white rhinos on Earth. But how do they differ from their southern cousins? Let’s explore.

At Ol Pejeta, we're proud to be part of this vital work, not just for wild dogs, but for all species that rely on connected ecosystems. Together, we can ensure that the wild dogs of today have the space and freedom to thrive for generations to come.

The work being done at Sweetwaters, alongside Jane’s groundbreaking research and advocacy, is vital to ensuring that chimps and all endangered species have a future. Here’s to honouring Jane’s legacy and supporting her vision for a world where humans and animals live in harmony.

Vultures are often misunderstood, but they’re nature’s unsung heroes. These incredible birds play a vital role in keeping our ecosystems healthy by safely disposing of carcasses, preventing the spread of disease to wildlife, livestock, and even humans.

Sadly, vultures are among the world’s fastest declining species, with poisoning and human activity pushing them to the brink of extinction. In Kenya, 4 of our 8 vulture species are critically endangered.

[Ol Pejeta @OlPejeta]

Let’s change the narrative and give vultures the respect they deserve. They’re not just scavengers; they’re essential for a healthy planet.

New stripes and new bonds.

Zebra foals are born with a special connection to their mothers. The unique stripe pattern of each mother is imprinted on her foal, helping them recognise each other in the wild. It's nature's way of ensuring they stay close and safe.
