Recreating Our African Wilderness – Samara Private Game Reserve
Due to bad land management overgrazing became rife in this dry semi-desert land. Ten years ago Mark and Sarah Tompkins had a vision to recreate the original wilderness that existed in this dramatically beautiful area. They bought up 11 farms covering an area of 28 000 hectares (70 000 acres) and turned it into a nature reserve reintroducing wildlife species that existed here many years ago. This nature reserve is Samara Private Game Reserve.
