In early December, a male bat weighing just 1 gram arrived at Cango Wildlife after being attacked by a cat and brought in by a concerned member of the public. At that weight, he fit easily into the palm of a hand. Fragile. Silent. Fighting for survival long before he reached our care. Whenever wildlife has contact with a cat, immediate veterinary care is essential. Cat saliva carries bacteria that can be...
Refreshed Identity
We are proud to share an exciting milestone in our journey. As we prepare to celebrate our 40th anniversary in February 2026, we have refreshed our visual identity and introduced a modern evolution of our name. Moving forward, we will be known simply as Cango Wildlife - a name that reflects who we are today and the vision we carry for the decades ahead.
This change comes with a refined logo, thoughtfully adapted from our original design rather than replaced. Our iconic cheetah silhouette remains at the heart of our brand, honouring the legacy that has carried us for 40 years. With cleaner lines and a modern profile, the new emblem signals our next chapter - stronger, bolder and future-focused.
We chose evolution over reinvention. Our history is our foundation, and our future builds from it with renewed purpose and pride.
This identity update marks the beginning of a broader transformation. We are elevating our style, our storytelling and our guest experience both online and across our facility. From new animal habitats and refreshed visitor areas to digital upgrades, enhanced family zones and the launch of our Boa-themed restaurant, Cango Wildlife is stepping into a new era of innovation and impact.
Our mission remains clear: to protect wildlife, inspire public connection and lead with ethical, progressive conservation principles. These changes simply allow us to do it with greater intention, clarity and excellence.
As we enter our 40th year, we invite our supporters, partners and the community to join us on this journey. Visit us, follow our progress and be part of this exciting transformation, because while our look has evolved, our heart and purpose remain unchanged.
The next chapter of Cango Wildlife has begun, and it is filled with energy, ambition and a deep commitment to the natural world we serve.

On the first of February, Monique and Rouan Engelbrecht chose to celebrate one of life’s most meaningful milestones in a way that reflected their values. They hosted a conservation conscious gender reveal at Cango Wildlife.
At Cango Wildlife, conservation isn’t something we only talk about; it’s something we’re constantly trying to refine, improve, and live out in practical ways. That includes looking inward: examining how we manage our own environmental footprint, how we treat and restore the land we steward, and how we align our practices with the bigger global sustainability framework - from South Africa’s climate goals to the guiding principles of UN-aligned sustainability and the...
