Moholoholo  is situated close to the world famous Kruger National Park at the base of the Drakensberg escarpment in the Limpopo Province lowveld of South Africa. The closest town to Moholoholo is Hoedspruit which is nearly 500kms from Johannesburg and Hoedspruit is approximately 30kms, or a half hour away, from Moholoholo.  

The Moholoholo Wildlife Rehabilitation Centre plays a crucial role in conserving many endangered species of Africa and has become a haven for the rehabilitation and care of abandoned, injured and poisoned wildlife as well as facilitating the monitoring and breeding of endangered species.

Wildlife is brought into the Centre from all corners of South Africa, and once healthy are reintroduced into their natural environments.  Animals which cannot be returned to the wild, due to the nature of their injuries, are cared for at the Centre and used as "ambassadors" to educate schools and visitors from all over the world.  Moholoholo was recently featured on National Geographic in a six-part documentary called "Wild Orphans".

The conservation efforts of Moholoholo make a huge difference to many species, including raptors.  Moholoholo strives to conserve what man is fast destroying through the rehabilitation of African wildlife and currently runs hugely successful breeding programmes for a variety of threatened species. 

Moholoholo is a non-profit organisation that relies completely on public donations and volunteer support to continue their important work. Volunteers participate in:

· Hand rearing of orphaned animals, such as cheetah cubs, warthogs, bush babies, eagles and lions

· Care and feeding of the permanent residents unable be released back into the wild

· Treatment and care of sick and injured animals who can thereafter be released back into the wild

· Attending call-outs to capture animals for relocation or transfer to the Centre for treatment

· Game capture, relocation and release when appropriate
