Volunteers often look after bush babies while at Khulula Wild Care. A nocturnal animal, as many as twenty may crowd together to sleep in an enclosed space like a hollow tree trunk. At dusk they wake & split into family groups & go searching for food.
Duke the giraffe
Duke the giraffe
Duke was bought into Khulula Wild Care just a few hours old. It was thought that he had been abandoned by his mum. The volunteers lovingly cared for him until the centre sadly lost him to tick bite fever. While his time on Earth was cut short, the volunteers had given him all their love and care knowing that for his last few weeks he was extremely happy. R.I.P Duke.
