Every stay at Onguma supports more than a safari. The reserve has been a Black Rhino Custodian since 2003, runs a 24-hour Anti-Poaching Unit, and partners with researchers studying ecosystem health across the region.
None of this happens on its own. It takes rangers on patrol through the night, scientists tracking vultures across hundreds of kilometers, and guides who carry that knowledge into every morning drive. It also takes guests, since a portion of every stay goes directly towards funding this work through Onguma's Conservation Levy.
This article explains it all, the people behind the work, what it actually involves day to day and how a stay at Onguma fits into the bigger picture.
One recent guest at Camp Kala put it well. They came for the luxury and the wildlife, and left understanding what makes both possible.
