On Thula Thula Game reserve and the situation of poaching during lockdown, real challenging times for wildlife conservation
Most adorable video of a baby rhino with her mum
This is the first video where we can see clearly our little bundle of joy baby rhino that we named Sissi, name short from Busisiwe, which means "blessing" in Zulu.
After the tragic death of little Lisa from viral infection in January this year, we were so devastated and never realized that her mother Mona was pregnant.
Sissi was born just before the lockdown was announced in March. Highly protected by her mother, we had very few sightings so far. Mona is gaining more confidence and trust that she lives in a safe environment as we see her more and more in open grassland. Mona, Sissi, Thabo and Ntombi are monitored 24/7 by our anti-poaching team.
The video was taken by our game ranger Victor
Wat olifanten mij leerden over moed, liefde en overlevingskracht
Op 15 juni verschijnt de Nederlandse vertaling van An Elephant In My Kitchen, het vervolg op de wereldwijde bestseller The Elephant Whisperer. In Een olifant in mijn keuken beschrijft Françoise Malby-Anthony hoe ze alles op alles zet om haar beroemde kudde olifanten te beschermen en hoe ze haar droom, een opvangcentrum voor wilde dieren, waarmaakt. De twee boeken spelen zich af in Thula Thula, een private game reserve in KwaZulu-Natal.
Poaching during lockdown
Thula Thula game reserve rhino poaching attempts foiled
Speaking with elephants
One of the strange consequences of lockdown happened at Thula Thula Game Reserve northwest of Empangeni in Zululand. This is where Lawrence and Francoise Anthony, in 1999, took custody of a herd of wild and traumatised elephants - and added to the annals of Africa’s wildlife story.

Mona and baby Sissi: Our little rhino baby. Sissi was born at the end of March as lockdown kicked in and has grown so much already. This “surprise” baby has become a little bundle of joy, gaining more confidence every day and her curiosity is a good sign of her learning from Mommy Mona, who is still ever alert and protective. They are also getting used to the discreet presence of their 24/7 surveillance, anti-poaching team and the game viewers.

READER'S DIGEST - April 2020
Following my husband’s death, I found myself in charge of the African nature reserve we created together. I didn’t know where to begin.

Rhino Love, the arrival of Mona and Lisa 10 May 2019
What does it take to move two rhino from one reserve to another? Loads of men (and women) power, plenty of dedication and heavily armed guards! Helicopter to dart, vets checking stability and performing tests, transport boxes and a truck for the transport.
The distance from Phinda to Thula Thula is 164km. Driving with two rhino through Zululand in the middle of the war on wildlife is a high security operation. The convoy included a security vehicle in the front and a security vehicle in the back with every imaginable "fire power" plus three support vehicles following.
It was all team work moving Mona and Lisa, here are Siya, Lynda, Vuzi and Francoise just ahead of the transport from Phinda to Thula Thula! Twenty km before reaching Thula Thula a surprise was thrown at us. The truck transporting Mona and Lisa broke down. What followed was simply incredible to witness.
Grant from Tracy & du Plessis Game Capture, the organiser of the relocation, called everyone in Zululand to assist. When Richards Bay Crane Hire heard that there were rhinos involved they dropped everything they were doing and rushed to our help. The transport boxes were reloaded to the new truck; and Mona & Lisa were on the final stretch to Thula Thula.
A hero at work! How driver Lesly Ndawonde from Richard's Bay Crane Hire navigated the the narrow paths of Thula Thula and reversed the massive truck into our boma is simply miraculous! Just a few steps away to welcome Mona and Lisa to their new home!
Security measures deployed during the relocation and capture of Mona and Lisa was done by armed guards.
Rhino protection in the year 2019!
Not only for the transfer between Phinda to Thula Thula heavily armed guards ensured safety and security. Now armed guards are protecting 4 rhino at Thula Thula, 24 hours of each and every day. For a private game reserve such as us the single biggest expenditure every month to ensure the safety of Thabo, Ntombi, Mona and Lisa, and all our precious wildlife.
THANK YOU !
Our gratitude and thanks go to:
YOU, our dear Thula Thula friends. For helping to get Mona and Lisa to our safe wildlife haven to create a rhino family at Thula Thula and by supporting and generously donating to our conservation efforts!

Conservation coup
TWO significant land merge deals will create a huge boost for local conservation efforts.Thula Thula Private Game Reserve and the Ubizo Communal Property Association (UCPA) signed an agreement to join their land for the purpose of a greater conservation space.A memorandum of understanding was signed on Thursday by Thula Thula, represented by Francoise Malby Anthony, and the UCPA led by chairperson Thomas Cebekhulu.According to a media statement, the agreement records the Ubizo community’s commitment to incorporate into Thula Thula some 1 133 hectares of the Dube Ridge farm that was recently restored to them, in part settlement of a land claim.
Celebrating the historic signing are (back) Kirsten Youens – Thula Thula attorney, Francoise Malby Anthony, Clement Cebekhulu, Michael Crichton – owner and MD of Zulweni game reserve, Vusi Gumede – Thula Thula farm manager, Muzi Sikakane – game ranger, Siya Mbatha – Thula Thula head ranger, Thandeka Mndaba, Buyi Mbokazi, Thomas Cebekhulu; (front) Clive Kelly – attorney of the Ubizo CPA, Christiaan DuBuson – Conservation manager at Thula Thula and TA Cebekh
Dube Ridge farm previously belonged to Tongaat Hulett, and was stripped of its water rights and irrigation infrastructure before being handed over to the Cebekhulu community.The Cebekhulu community investigated all possible farming opportunities on the land and decided that the best use for the western portion of the farm would be conservation and tourism.The Ubizo CPA has considered that the best suited model for Dube Ridge farm, due to its proximity to Thula Thula, is that of wildlife conservation and tourism which offer the most appropriate and beneficial land use.‘We are delighted and grateful at Thula Thula to be in partnership with the Ubizo CPA, who have chosen to use their land and share the same vision as us for nature and wildlife conservation,’ said Francoise Malby AnthonyThe UCPA plans to create a Zulu traditional village to entertain tourists, which will be complementary to the wildlife activities of the game reserve.Following the signing of a lease agreement, the construction of the fence will commence and soon the world renowned elephants of Thula Thula will be seen roaming on Cebekhulu land.
Second pact
An agreement has also been reached between Thula Thula and Zulweni private game reserves, with the incorporation of a further 1 200 hectares, introducing the establishment of the Greater Zululand Wildlife Conservancy into a single conservation area, creating an extended land area of 5 600 hectares, with more projects of expansion in the near future. This expansion will provide a greatly increased surface area for the current, and any newly-introduced, wildlife to roam more freely.This will permit the introduction of new game species and, importantly, will also provide for a widening of the current gene pool and improved biodiversity, all positive improvement for wildlife in the region.

Why do a South African Safari?
Safari is basically like a thrilling and adventurous journey, the journey to enjoy with free roaming animals. The animals usually live in their natural environment such as savanna, forests, wander around and prey. The best thing about the safaris is that human beings, just like you and me can visit and enjoy a wonderful interacting with these animals (but not disturbing them). Safari is generally an overland journey or a trip to Africa where people you can experience the wildlife as much as you want. The tourist guide, vehicles and other facilities are provided making sure that there is not sort of inconvenience.
Enough knowing what a safari is. Just out of curiosity, there is a question continually popping in my mind. Have you ever been to a safari? No? Well if not, then now is the time.
Now you might be probably wondering which safari is actually the best. Right? Well, the best of all is the South African Safari mainly because of the diversity of animals. There are several species of animals you didn’t even hear of. Elephants, antelopes, rhinos, hyena, buffalos and a variety of birds too. Trust me, it is one of the best and most diverse animal lands on the planet. From friendly omnivores to fierce carnivores, there are literally several different kinds of animals to see. To be more accurate, the nation (South Africa) has almost 299 species of mammals and 858 species of birds. Shocking? Well, believe it or not, it’s actually true.
Animals you can find in South African safari:
There are so many animals’ species in the South African safaris that it literally becomes tough to name. Some of the most common species are stated below, have a look:
Mammals: Some mammals you might see in the South African safari are Rhinoceros, elephants, cape buffalos, Springbok (which is South Africa’s national animal too), Nyala, bushbuck, Oryx, lions and leopards. These are just a few out of the hundreds of species which you can observe on your trip to the safari park.
Birds: Who doesn’t love birds? Those flying creatures are quite admirable. The best thing is that you can observe quite a lot of them on your trip. Some of which are; Ostrich, tawny eagle, African goshawk, snake eagle and spotted owl eagle.
Snakes: While most of you might be scared of snakes. Obviously, why won’t someone be, right? There are still some species you might want to observe live. If you haven’t ever had a chance, then this is your opportunity. On your tour or trip to the safari, you can actually see numerous different species of snakes which include; Eastern green mamba, black mamba, cape cobra, mole snake and puff adder.
These are some animals you might come across on your trip to the South African Safari. But don’t worry none of these can attack you. Precautionary measures and preventive measures are taken primarily. So there is literally no risk of life. Just a little adventure and some fun might be your way, though!!!

Up close with famous elephants by Billy Suter
EXCITING times lie ahead for Francoise Malby Anthony, charming owner and managing director of Thula Thula, the popular Empangeni game reserve and safari lodge now celebrating its 20th anniversary, and soon to launch a conservation drive involving volunteers.
This 4500-hectare reserve, as any wildlife lover will tell you, is the one made famous in the bestselling book, The Elephant Whisperer, by Francoise’s late husband, conservationist and author of three books, Lawrence Anthony, who passed away in 2012.
That 2009 book, co-written with Graham Spence, told the true story of a herd of wild African elephants marked to be shot for dangerous behaviour until Lawrence intervened, gave them a home on his reserve, formed a close bond with them and watched them flourish.

An Elephant in my Kitchen
What the herd taught me about love, courage and survival
SYNOPSIS
A blonde, chic Parisienne, Françoise never expected to find herself living on a South African game reserve. But when she fell in love with renowned conservationist Lawrence Anthony her life took an unexpected turn. Lawrence died in 2012 and Françoise was left to face the tough reality of running Thula Thula without him, even though she knew very little about conservation. She was short on money, poachers were threatening their rhinos, and one of their elephants was charging Land Rovers on game drives and terrifying guests. There was no time to mourn when Thula Thula’s human and animal family were depending on her.How Françoise survived and Thula Thula thrived is beautifully described in this charming, funny and poignant book.
Their elephant herd, rescued by Lawrence, shared Françoise’s grief at his passing but over time forged a new relationship with her. One day a baby, Tom, became separated from the herd and found his way into Françoise’s kitchen. Another day there was a desperate race against time to save a baby who had a snare wrapped around his face and couldn’t open his mouth to suckle.
Meanwhile, Françoise fulfilled her dream of building a rescue centre for orphaned rhinos and other wildlife. Abandoned hippo baby Charlie, who hated water, joined the centre’s rhinos and quickly became best friends with a little girl rhino called Makhosi. The traumatised babies had round the clock care, including an unlikely nursemaid in the form of a German Shepherd called Duma. If you loved Lawrence’s The Elephant Whisperer, or just want to spend time with some very special animals, then you won’t want to miss this sparkling book.

Chinese Delegation visits Thula Thula – Education is key to Conservation
Sharing Vision on Anti-Poaching and Wildlife Conservation with the Chinese community.
For the past almost 20 years, Thula Thula has been dedicated to the rescue, protection and conservation of wildlife.
Despite the tragic events which took place on the 21st of February this year, we carry on, as the protection and survival of our wildlife is a fight that we can never give up.
Nowadays, most of our wildlife is endangered because of ancient traditions or superstitions.
3 Rhinos killed every day in South Africa and 1 Elephant every 15 min in Africa.
We can all fight this by different ways, by fighting with weapons, as this is a war, but also by education, as education is key to conservation.
This can be done by stopping the demand for rhino horn and elephant tusks. If there is no more demand, there will be no more killing of our endangered wildlife.
Children are the voices of the future and that is why it is vital for them to learn and understand the importance of wildlife conservation and protection, and to learn and understand the poaching crisis we are faced with every day in our nature reserves.
To each go back and spread the message now as if this carries on like this, in 20 years’ time, elephant and rhino will be no more to be seen in Africa.
On behalf of all our wildlife, we would like to thank Mr Jianzhou Wang, the Consul General of China, and the Durban Chinese Community, for choosing Thula Thula for this amazing donation and for caring and helping to make a difference and sharing our passion and vision for conservation.
