Mliliwane Animal Sanctuary, Swaziland

October 2008

Back to Travel Blog


En route to the Kruger I broke up the nearly 14 hour drive with a stop in the Mliliwane Animal Sanctuary in Swaziland near the capital of Mbabane. Set up in sixties as the pioneer conservation area for the country following the collapse of its wildlife population in the early 20th century, it is now a refuge for a large number of threatened species.

Unfortunately the weather did not play into my favour and it rained during most of my few hours there, but the main highlights was getting close to the normally very shy Blue Duiker and feeding the Greater Bushbabies in pouring rain.
