Crag’s View Wild
Care Centre, situated on Crag’s View farm, Port Edward, is
the only official wildlife rehabilitation centre serving the lower
south coast region, KwaZulu-Natal (KZN).
The core function of the Centre is to
attempt to rehabilitate and release as many animals and birds as
possible that have sustained injuries and stress due to mainly human
influence. Patients include antelope, from the protected blue
duiker to bush buck, as well as a variety of birds and small mammals
indigenous to our area.
Our current and most pressing goals are
two-fold: to establish and education/information centre, concentrating
particularly on increasing awareness in our future generations.
The second is to build improved and appropriate care areas for animals
and birds in an attempt to simulate their natural environments.
Crags View Wild Care Centre is registered
as a section 21 company not-for-gain 2001/030135/08 under the title
‘Beri’ah Wildlife Orphans Fund’. It is also a
registered NPO (030-565) and NGO affiliated with Ezemvelo KZN Wildlife.
