What is the Mutanda Nature Reserve???

As I write this I am in fact 2000 kilometres away from the Reserve, I am preparing for my mid-year exams. Never the less I am kept up to date with every movement on the reserve by the many people on the ground.

The Mutanda Nature Reserve is located 40 Kilometres to the West of Solwezi, in North Western Zambia. The picturesque reserve is home to a diverse range of both species and habitats, ranging from the famed Cape Buffalo all the way down to the Diminutive Blue Duiker, the phenomenal wildlife is complemented by a wide range of habitats ranging from Miombo Woodland to Floodplain.

The Reserve is always looking to develop, and over the next year will be expanding to ensure a truly natural, self sustaining wilderness area can be formed. It is foreseen that by the end of the expansion and development, the reserve will cover an effective area of 11 000 acres. This will allow for the introduction of additional threatened species such as Roan Antelope, Oribi and wild, self-sustaining Cheetah, Caracal and Serval.

The reserve is in its infancy however it is our belief that by the completion of the project the reserve will rank as one of the premier private wildlife reserves in Zambia. This is due to a plethora of reasons, such as the fact that we can boast of having less common species such as Roan, Cheetah and Buffalo all present on the reserve, something that very few privately owned Zambian Wildlife Reserves can boast of.

Until Next Time......
