Thank you to The Racy Family from Brazil South America & Indri - Ultimate Mammal Voyages.
The Meerkat Magic Conservation Project wishes to thank the Racy Family for your very generous donation from Brazil in South America and for your visit to us at The Meerkat Magic Conservation Project in Oudtshoorn, Western Cape of South Africa on a morning Sunrise Tour on the 27 June 2008.
The Meerkat Magic Conservation Project would like to highly recommend INDRI - Ultimate Mammal Voyages to any business who wishes to have their professional and International Tour Guiding service. We would also like to thank Simon Bellingham from Indri - Ultimate Mammal Voyages for the very generous sponsorship of The Meerkat Magic Conservation Project and their conservation efforts and help with conservation funding through responsible Tourism - your professional tours are a flagship to be admired in the industry - thank you!
Your donation helps us to continue to offer our wildlife protected areas by subsidising landowners to be pro active in alternative land usage and farming practices that are not destructive to sensitive habitat types. Like not ploughing up burrow systems of the fossorial mammals (diggers) that we are very concerned about, as their habitat is often destroyed through ignorance. We truly appreciate your support / sponsorship of our conservation of wild meerkat / meerkats / suricate / suricates habitat.
Your donation also helps fund The Meerkat Magic Conservation Project charity work with schools in the area of Oudtshoorn in the Western Cape of South Africa, and salaries for wildlife trackers and with our high running costs for petrol and research equipment.

Submitted by Grant on Tuesday, June 12 @ 08:03:19 CEST We all depend on nature in countless ways to sustain our daily lives, and yet so few help to actively sustain nature in the myriad of ways required. Often the reasons given are simply, it is not my job, or what difference can I make?
Every day, each individual has an opportunity to make choices. These choices can have a profound impact on the environment in a positve, sustainable way. The Meerkat Magic Conservation Project believes that education and skills training is essential in this regard to help with informed choices.
