The N/aan Ku S Foundation Wildlife Sanctuary Provides A Safe Haven And Second Chance For Countless Injured,

The N/a’an ku sê Foundation Wildlife Sanctuary provides a safe haven and  second chance for countless injured, orphaned and conflict animals.  Wherever possible the aim is to release animals back into the wild.  Only animals too ill, abused or habituated remain at the sanctuary. This  is done purely for their safety and survival chances, particularly  vital for big cats. The release of carnivores, both cheetahs and  leopards, is a top priority at N/a’an ku sê – “returning the wild to the  wild” being the mantra that forms the backbone of their projects.  At N/a’an ku sê they limit human contact  with those large carnivores ear-marked for potential release, as  habituation of any kind can lower their survival chances in the wild.  Those animals having found a permanent home at N/a’an ku sê through  various circumstances are provided with enrichment activities crucial to  their emotional well-being.

-----------------------------

Das Wildlife Sanctuary der N / a'an ku sê Foundation bietet unzähligen verletzten, verwaisten und Konflikttieren einen sicheren Hafen und eine zweite Chance. Wo immer möglich, ist das Ziel, Tiere wieder in die Wildnis freizulassen. Nur Tiere, die zu krank, missbraucht oder zahm sind, bleiben im Park. Dies geschieht ausschließlich wegen Sicherheitsgründen und Überlebenschancen, insbesondere für Großkatzen. Die Freilassung von Fleischfressern, sowohl Geparden als auch Leoparden, hat bei N / a'an ku sê höchste Priorität - „Die Wildnis in die Wildnis zurückbringen“ ist das Mantra, das das Rückgrat ihrer Projekte bildet. Bei N / a'an ku sê beschränkt man den menschlichen Kontakt mit diesen großen Fleischfressern, die für eine mögliche Freilassung vorgesehen sind, da Gewöhnung jeglicher Art ihre Überlebenschancen in freier Wildbahn verringern kann. Diejenigen Tiere, die unter verschiedenen Umständen ein dauerhaftes Zuhause in N / a'an ku sê gefunden haben, erhalten Beschäftigungsaktivitäten, die für ihr emotionales Wohlbefinden von entscheidender Bedeutung sind.

Between Kaokoland and the Skeleton Coast, where the flat-topped Etendeka mountains and the carpet of rich red rock greet the tributaries of the Uniab River, lies Palmwag Lodge. Amid swaying makalani palms and robust mopane trees nourished by underground water, the lodge overlooks the sweeping northern Damaraland landscape peppered with green euphorbias. Feel the freedom of the north-western corner of Namibia, one of Africa’s last wildernesses, a refuge for black rhino and lion, and home to the famous desert elephant that follow the ephemeral rivers spanning the land like arteries of life.

Zwischen Kaokoland und der Skelettküste, wo die flachen Etendeka-Berge und der Teppich aus sattem rotem Fels auf die Nebenflüsse des Uniab-Flusses trifft, liegt die Palmwag Lodge. Inmitten schwankender Makalani-Palmen und robuster Mopane-Bäume, die von unterirdischem Wasser leben, überblickt die Lodge die weitläufige Landschaft des nördlichen Damaralandes, gespickt mit grünen, aber giftigen Euphorbien. Hier spürt man die Freiheit der nordwestlichen Ecke Namibias, einer der letzten Wildnisgebiete Afrikas, ein Zufluchtsort für schwarze Nashörner und Löwen und die Heimat der berühmten Wüstenelefanten.

Located in the famous Skeleton Coast concession between the Hoarusib and Hoanib rivers in the Skeleton Coast National Park, Shipwreck Lodge is only 45 km from Möwe Bay. The shipwreck-shaped chalets are nestled between the dunes with a view of the Atlantic Ocean where the cold Benguela current provides guests with a refreshing breeze.

In days gone by, the entire coast of Namibia was known as the Skeleton Coast. Today only the park located on the northern coast, stretching from the Kunene River to Ugab River, is called by this name. The area covering 16,845 km2 was declared a nature reserve in 1971, and serves to protect nearly a third of Namibia’s coastline. It is notorious for its treacherous weather, rough surf and shifting shores.

Die Shipwreck Lodge befindet sich in der berühmten Skeleton Coast-Konzession zwischen den Flüssen Hoarusib und Hoanib im Skeleton Coast National Park, nur 45 km von der Möwe Bay entfernt. Die schiffswrackförmigen Chalets befinden sich zwischen den Dünen mit Blick auf den Atlantik, wo die kalte Benguela-Strömung den Gästen eine erfrischende Brise bringt.

In früheren Zeiten war die gesamte Küste Namibias als Skelettküste bekannt. Heute wird nur der Park an der Nordküste, der sich vom Fluss Kunene bis zum Fluss Ugab erstreckt, so genannt. Das 16.845 km2 große Gebiet wurde 1971 zum Naturschutzgebiet erklärt und dient dem Schutz von fast einem Drittel der Küste Namibias. Es ist bekannt für sein tückisches Wetter, die raue Brandung und die wandernden Ufer.

Bis noch vor etwa 100 Jahren waren Elefanten auf dem gesamten afrikanischen Kontinent verbreitet. Die Wilderei für den Elfenbeinhandel hat sie in weiten Gebieten ausgerottet: Afrikanische Elefanten leben heute nur noch südlich der Sahara. Der größte Bestand befindet sich im südlichen Afrika, insbesondere in Botswana.

Until about 100 years ago, elephants were common across the African continent. Poaching for the ivory trade has wiped them out in large areas: African elephants now only live south of the Sahara. The largest population is in southern Africa, especially in Botswana.

Painted Dogs are found in savanna grasslands and woodlands and love playing in waterholes. In fact bonds between pack individuals are so strong that the fittest pack members will hunt and provide food for the sick and elderly. Painted Dogs rely on cooperation to survive. Cooperation enables them to be one of the most successful predators in the world. On average they can catch their prey 80% of the time. These dogs are cursorial hunters meaning they pursue their prey in a long, open chase.

They are cunning and stealthy hunters but rely on their incredible vision to locate prey such as wildebeest, impala or zebra. During the hunt dogs will communicate with each other using high pitched yapping calls.

-------------------------------------------

Afrikanische Wildhunde kommen im Grasland  und Wäldern von Savannen vor und lieben es, in Wasserlöchern zu spielen. Tatsächlich sind die Bindungen zwischen den Mitgliedern eines Rudels so stark, dass die besten Rudelmitglieder jagen und Nahrung für Kranke und Ältere besorgen. Wildhunde sind auf Teamarbeit angewiesen, um zu überleben. Durch die Zusammenarbeit gehören sie zu den erfolgreichsten Raubtieren der Welt. Im Schnitt können sie zu 80% Beute fangen. Diese Hunde sind Laufjäger, was bedeutet, dass sie ihre Beute in einer langen, offenen Verfolgungsjagd erlegen.

Sie sind listige Jäger, verlassen sich aber auf ihre unglaubliche Sehfähigkeit, um Beute wie Gnus, Impalas oder Zebras zu lokalisieren. Während der Jagd kommunizieren die Hunde über hohes Kläffen miteinander.
