The Chipangali Wildlife Orphanage: An Initiative to Give a Home to Wild Animals

We often see or hear news that woods are being cut off, somewhere fire outbreaks in the forest, and because of that many wild animals are being made homeless. This disastrous news reached every ear but not every heart, but Mr. Vivian Wilson, ex-game ranger, and his wife paddy initiated a step to build a shelter home for the orphaned, abandoned and sick wild animals. This initiation led them to build the Chipangali Wildlife Orphanage for wild animals. I, Jozef Behr, took a tour of this orphanage and was amazed to see the hard work of all the volunteers here. 

 

Chipangali Wildlife

This wildlife orphanage is in southern Africa located in Bulawayo, Zimbabwe. When you visit this place, you will see hundreds of species combining birds, mammals, and of course carnivores. A tourist goes through the mammal enclosures to the left of the entryway. The Barry Wilson Aviary, dedicated to the late son of Chipangali founders, is located to the right. Flamingos, peacocks, eagles, owls, and other sorts of birds live in the aviary. Then there's the Carnivores segment, which includes a few lions and leopards. The lions and leopards in the carnivores' part can be seen up close, however they will be confined in a fence. The Judith lookout also provides a great view of the lions. There is also a monkey enclosure, which houses a variety of gorgeous monkeys. Other exhibitions contain snakes and fetuses of other species. 


 

The volunteers in the orphanage did a great job for these animals. They feed them, take good care of the animals when they are sick and provide them with a better environment like forests for their better mental and physical growth. You often see visitors here but it’s not a zoo, it’s an orphanage for the orphaned, abandoned, and sick wild animals.

National Coat of Arms of Zimbabwe

 A national coat of arms, often known as a state emblem, is the state's most visible symbol. Consider how the Coat of Arms is endorsed on all of the significant events in your life: birth, marriage, death, and school certificates, as well as your passport. It's on one of the sides of your tiniest coin. Seeing a plaque of it on the embassy when out of the nation signifies a home away from home. The coat of arms is also a key component of the Great Seal, which is historically regarded as the state's highest insignia. The President of Zimbabwe, by Statutory Instrument no.636 of September 1981, Armorial Bearings of Zimbabwe, formally accepted the Coat of Arms of Zimbabwe on September 12, 1981.   On the left and right, two kudus are depicted, each standing on top of an earthly mound made up of wheat stalks, a pile of cotton, and a head of maize.

The Mighty Victoria Falls, Matopo Hills, Great Zimbabwe Monuments, and wildlife in Hwange, Zambezi, Mana Pools, and Gonarezhou National Parks are just a few of the natural and man-made attractions that Zimbabwe is endowed with.   Jozef Behr , a regular visitor to Zimbabwe, stated on his travel blog, “It's a marvel that so many travelers never make it past Victoria Falls since some of Africa's highest concentrations of wildlife, most trained guides, and finest all-around values lie just beyond its roaring depths”.       According to Jozef Behr ’s article, the greatest time to visit Zimbabwe is between June and November, when animals, particularly birds, visit the Mana Pools along the Zambezi River to drink water.     The amount of hospitability, the sincere feeling of welcome, and the general service and contact experience from the Zimbabweans many travelers become frequent t raveler to this destination. They are so full of hope and optimism for what th...
