A stone’s throw from Reteti House, a mere 10-minute walk, lies the Reteti Elephant Sanctuary, the first community-owned sanctuary in Africa that provides a sanctuary for orphaned and abandoned elephant calves with an aim to release them back into the wild. Visitors of Reteti House can engage intimately with these majestic creatures, gaining insight into the conservation efforts that allow these elephants to reclaim their place in the wild.
Despite its recent dissociation from the Northern Rangelands Trust, Sarara continues to influence conservation discourse profoundly. This independence marks a pivotal moment in conservation history, potentially shaping the trajectory of wildlife stewardship in the region. Guests of Reteti House are part of this unfolding narrative, bearing witness to a model of wildlife management that could redefine the future of conservation.
