Our Story

Two leopard tortoises, now named Cam and Rufus, were discovered by a group of staff members during a routine camp cleaning. The staff quickly realized that the tortoises were in need of rehabilitation after being in less ideal circumstances for an unknown amount of time. The tortoises were weak, undernourished, and in need of care and attention. 

We took the tortoises into our care and carefully monitored the tortoises' health, providing them with a balanced diet and a suitable environment that was similar to their natural habitat. It was a long road, but after three months of dedicated care and attention, the tortoises had made a remarkable recovery. 

We were thrilled to announce that the tortoises were ready to be released back into the wild. We carefully selected a suitable location, one that was far from any human activity and with plenty of vegetation for the tortoises to feed on. 

On the day of release, the tortoises slowly made their way into the wild, their shells shining in the sunlight. It was a bittersweet moment for the staff, who had grown attached to the tortoises during their rehabilitation. But they knew that this was the best outcome for the tortoises and for the preservation of the natural environment. 

Releasing the tortoises back into the wild was not just a feel-good story, but a positive step towards maintaining the ecological balance. It was a reminder that each animal in the wild has its unique journey and that every effort counts in preserving the natural environment.
