Wildlife Watching, 2018

The chance of seeing wildlife is one of the most exciting things about visiting the pristine natural environments. Hardly anything can come close to that breathtaking feeling of observing a wild animal - a moment we will never forget.

Our destination, enriched with 2Parks, offers a great way to get back to nature and escape from modern-day hustle and bustle. Waiting to watch wildlife, patiently and quietly, gives us a perfect chance to clear our minds from all the 'noise' and stop the constant chatter and mental tapes that rule us. Ego fills the natural silence in the mind with its constant chatter because the ego can not understand the depth and peace of silence - let's silence it!!

With hunting being such a long-standing tradition in our region, and with us bringing about a change, we would like to give our hunters a different perspective on wildlife, because wildlife viewing brings in so much more revenue to local communities than hunting.

For example, more people in the U.S. would rather watch wild animals than kill them. Preliminary findings of the 2016 National Survey of Fishing, Hunting and Wildlife-Associated Recreation indicate wildlife watching was the most popular activity (86 million), followed by fishing (35.8 million) and hunting (11.5 million). This translates into 35 percent of Americans participating in wildlife watching, 14 percent fishing and 5 percent hunting. Link: National Survey 2016.pdf

The greatest threat to all wildlife on our planet is habitat loss, but with hunting humans have wiped out many animal predators and have provoked a systematic imbalance in nature. Let’s bring about change through knowledge!
