Activity – Giraffe Centre
The African Fund for Endangered Wildlife Kenya (A.F.E.W. Kenya), also known as the Giraffe Centre, is a non-governmental, non-profit making organization, founded by Betty and Jock Leslie-Melville in 1979. This was in a bid to save the endangered Rothschild Giraffe, which had lost its natural habitat in Western Kenya to agriculture and there were only 130 left in the wild.
Funds were raised and 4 herds of the Rothschild giraffes were moved to 4 parks namely Lake Nakuru National Park, Mwea Game Reserve, Ruma National Park and Nasalot Game Reserve.
Next, continue to the Giraffe Centre, home to the endangered Rothschild’s giraffe. Enjoy an up-close encounter, feeding the giraffes from a raised platform, and learn about the ongoing conservation and education initiatives that protect this iconic species.
