Goo-Moremi Resort has received tracking equipment from Save Giraffes Now to support giraffe conservation and visitor education.
BONGANI MALUNGA
For wildlife lovers and eco conscious travellers seeking conservation based experiences, Goo-Moremi Resort is positioning itself as one of Botswana’s destinations linked to wildlife protection.
The resort has received advanced giraffe tracking equipment from the conservation organisation Save Giraffes Now, strengthening ongoing efforts to protect one of Africa’s most recognised species while supporting the visitor experience. The donation, valued at more than P200,000, marks another milestone in a conservation partnership focused on wildlife and sustainable tourism.
CONSERVATION SUPPORT
The latest contribution follows the successful translocation of giraffes to Goo-Moremi Resort by Save Giraffes Now in September last year. Since their arrival, the animals have become an attraction for visitors interested in Botswana’s natural heritage in a setting linked to conservation and environmental stewardship.
The newly donated equipment includes a quad bike, real time tracking technology and camera systems that will assist conservation teams in monitoring giraffe movements, collecting data and supporting the long term health and safety of the growing population.
TRACKING EQUIPMENT
Beyond conservation, the initiative offers tourists an opportunity to connect with wildlife in a more informed way. Modern tracking technology enables researchers and conservationists to better understand giraffe behaviour, while visitors are able to see how tourism activities support efforts to protect vulnerable wildlife.
Botswana has long been recognised as one of Africa’s safari destinations, and projects such as those at Goo-Moremi Resort show how tourism and conservation can work hand in hand. The combination of scenery, wildlife encounters and conservation initiatives creates an experience for travellers looking beyond a standard holiday.
HAND IN HAND
As giraffes continue to roam the landscape of Goo-Moremi, the project places the resort among tourism sites using conservation work to support visitor experiences while contributing to wildlife monitoring.
