Doi soți au unit 11 ferme abandonate și au creat o rezervație de 67.000 de acri în Africa de Sud: Leii au revenit acolo după 180 de ani

In 1997, Sarah and Mark Tompkins initiated a project to restore wildlife in Great Karoo, South Africa, transforming 11 former farms into a 67,000-acre reserve. Their efforts included removing invasive plants and barriers, allowing the ecosystem to recover. Over the years, they successfully reintroduced various species, including cheetahs, elephants, and lions, which had been absent for decades. The reserve now hosts over 60 mammal species and has become a popular safari destination. The Tompkins aim to create an ecological corridor linking three national parks for wildlife movement.
