In August 2018, ADI purchased 455 acres of land in Free State, South Africa and this week, six years ago, we began building the ADI Wildlife Sanctuary.

Our dream to build a place of loving kindness for animals in desperate. Since then, we have given a home to over 50 lions and tigers, from Peru, Colombia, Guatemala, South Africa, Armenia, and Kuwait.

We have a growing family rescued farm animals including pigs, goats, geese, and a cow, rescued antelope, donkeys and horses roaming the sanctuary and have released dozens of tortoises and turtles saved from traffickers.

We continue to rewild the land, planting hundreds of trees and have seen an explosion in native wildlife from Jackals and civet cats to secretary birds, owls and ibis.

We have 20 lion and tiger houses with habitats ranging from 2.5 acres up to 8 acres of natural land giving these animals from tiny cages huge spaces to roam – and for the lions the world that nature intended them for.

THANK YOU to everyone who helped us come this far, let’s keep building, developing the sanctuary and saving more animals.
