We will be joining forces with Dryland Events Management again this year, and our Operations Director, Hugo du Plessis will be taking part in the 36ONE event from 20 – 22 April 2018.

It’s been a little while since the squeaks of new-borns have had the Cango staff, especially animal-keepers, buzzing! Although the Zoological team had their suspicions that Macy, a 2 year old Slender Tailed Meerkat, might be ‘expecting’ …no one and nothing could prepare the team for the heart-melting, knee-rattling and jaw-dropping level of cuteness that was about to be experienced.

Cango Wildlife Ranch is a multi-accredited zoological facility and we uphold a high animal care standard.
With this we also have the important responsibility of educating the general public on every animal we house.

We always strive to set the bar of animal care as high as can possibly be attained - this is a formal practice which has been moulded for the past 30 years and is validated by various accreditations and practice regulations.

That being said... We have now taken our animal care standards to a whole new level as we are making our commitment public...

International Cheetah Day has become an occasion for all people around the world to celebrate this unique feline icon of speed and grace.

Cango Wildlife Ranch has gratefully accepted not 1 but 2 prestigious awards from PAAZA (Pan-African Association of Zoos & Aquaria)!

We are so excited to announce that our online shop is almost done!!

We are just finalizing our shop to make sure you have an amazing experience.

Included in our shop are the best of our on site Curio + adorable soft-toys who each have a special name tag representing one of our ambassador animals.

Watch this space!!

Cango Wildlife’s precious new additions!
It’s that time of year again… flowers are blooming, the sun is shining a little brighter and life is returning to what was a cool winters Karoo. The changes have brought around a wonderful baby boom on the ranch, ensuring that Spring really is a celebration of renewed life!
Born to the facility this past month is a gaggle of the fluffiest Egyptian Geese, Lorikeets, two Flying Fox pups, a petite little Springbok, a wide-eyed baby Brown Lemur and last but not least five very healthy and vibrant Cheetah cubs!

Exciting news!

SATSA has established a Southern Cape Chapter in order to better serve members in this beautiful part of the world - and our Assistant Director for Tourism, Cheetah reservation Foundation and Wild Animal Volunteers, Tammy Moult has been elected!

With big branch-like gills, lizard-like limbs, and a cute perma-smile, it’s hard not to fall in love with the axolotl.

This amazing animal can regenerate limbs!!

Meet Lourens - Oudtshoorns' only Axolotl!

Our motto: CONSERVE. CARE. CONNECT.
