conservation of crocodiles

While a significant percentage of Riverbend’s revenue is generated from the export of crocodile products Riverbend recognizes the need for the conservation of wild crocodiles in South Africa. To this end the farm as for a number of years offered the general public an option which has significantly contributed to the conservations of the wild crocodiles. Game sanctuaries such as Touch Stone and Mabula have taken up this offer and viable breeding populations now exist on these properties.

Riverbend Crocodile Farm offers free of any charge 4 juvenile females and a juvenile male crocodile to any game reserve or conservancy who may wish to re-introduce crocodiles into the wild. Naturally, the only proviso would be to obtain the necessary permits for both the translocation and accommodation of these crocodiles.

The responsible nature conservation officer would have to ensure that no human or crocodile conflict would result from these translocations.

Please feel free to contact the farm for more details of this offer.
