Good to know

Good to know

Chipangali Wildlife Orphanage is an NGO founded by Vivian and Paddy Wilson in 1973 with the main objectives of rescuing and caring for orphaned, injured and/or abandoned wild animals in Southern Africa. The project was such a success that it got the attention of Princess Diana (former Princess of Wales UK) and Stephanie Powers (former actress and conservationist in the USA) who joined in the efforts as patrons. It is quite impressive that the project is still going on 49 years later and currently being run by the Wilson family following the passing on of Vivian and Paddy.
