Cango Wildlife Ranch & ­Cheetahland

TIME : 2016/2/17 10:27:33

If you’re all ostriched out, head to this ranch. It feels a bit zoolike but contains a good collection of wildlife and big cats (in rather small enclosures). An encounter with cheetahs costs R140, and with the tiger cubs R300 (for over-16s only); funds go to the Cheetah Conservation Foundation. And if shark-cage diving is old hat for you, then you’ll love the crocodile-cage diving (R220) here, in a heated pool. The ranch is 3km from town on the road out to Prince Albert. Other big cats here include lions, pumas and Bengal white tigers, and there are also pygmy hippos, alligators and other wild animals.
