August/September 2008

Following the huge reduction of mammals during the prolonged conflict with Angola, re-populating the area with game began this year.

This is being carried out by the newly formed local Conservancy of which Kunene River Lodge is currently the only business partner.

100 mountain zebra and 27 giraffe were introduced from Etosha. Some of the giraffe have radio collars for tracking purposes. 44 kudu from a private game reserve were also released.

Website Update

• The major update of our website is now almost complete. We hope this will improve its usefulness, and its performance when viewed using the newer browsers now coming into common use.

• All the web pages and sub-pages have now been re-written to conform to the standard validation test set by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) specifications. This explains the presence of the cryptic W3C icons you may notice below the bottom of each page.

• We have incorporated our new logo which features the rare Cinderella Waxbill, resident in our grounds and nesting nearby.

• Perhaps the most significant visible change to the site is this new
Quick Info page which provides just that - basic information at a glance for those in a hurry.

• The new [Watch this Space] page will in future provide more detailed current and archive news.

• We hope you will find these revisions make the website even more useful in describing as best we can all the wonderful and unique experiences you can enjoy when you visit Kunene River Lodge.

If you find any errors or problems when using the website, please report them to the Webmaster who will endeavour to remedy them as soon as possible - see [Help] to the left.
