Ongava Game Reserve in Namibia is home to some of the rarest wild animals on the planet. At Ongava Research Centre it is our mission to help protect them.

By learning more about the endangered species and the fragile environment in which they live we aim to manage Ongava Game Reserve and all its resources more effectively; helping to maintain and preserve its precious natural heritage for present and future generations.

In November 2011 Ongava Research Centre won First place, Runner-up and Highly commended in the BBC Wildlife camera-trap photo competition.
