'Thank you!' to all who have supported us during the campaign that ended yesterday. The response from the WildEarth community has been overwhelming and we are deeply grateful. Whether you contributed financially, sent us ideas, created awareness, or provided moral support, we appreciate it all! The hallmark of a strong community is that everyone helps [...]
We have 2,311 backers and have exceeded our target by 239%. Your support has been overwhelming and we are beyond thankful. Because of your kindness and support we no longer need to to go off air on the 31st of October as we thought we would have to just 10 days ago. A full announcement [...]
We still have 9 days left of this campaign and as Graham said we are completely overwhelmed by the love and support from our WE family. In this update, we want to explain a little more about the WildEarth Club that WE are building and why WE are striving to get as many members as [...]
As Graham has just shared, we have come to a point where we cannot keep the safariLIVE broadcasts going any longer. We have, therefore, had to make the painful decision to retrench most of our staff, including our guides, camera operators, directors, tech support and others in Djuma, Illovo and Cape Town.

Our time on SABC 3 has officially kicked off and with that comes a slight adjustment to our regular show times for the coming weeks, as we make sure we’re ready to deliver the best possible LIVE animal action to our local screens. We will be doing two sets of private rehearsals during the [...]
With Tayla and Scott recently leaving our ranks, we’ve been busy scouring the land for bright, talented wildlife fanatics to join the team as presenters. And boy, did we strike gold! Our search has brought us not one or two, but THREE new faces who are currently with us as trainee guides. Better yet? [...]
