Buffalo Project
As with any game reserve and conservation area, there are significant running costs. In order to help fund these expenses we have developed a Buffalo breeding project. In 2018 we introduced some of the finest disease-free Buffalo in the country to the reserve where they have been doing very well. Stock was bought in from Thaba Tholo, Stud game breeders, Grootpan, Dries Visser and Keta. Only the excess mature bulls are sold to avoid in fighting between bulls. Tumbeta is a fenced reserve so with growing populations animals like the Buffalo must be occasionally removed to avoid over population and potential damage to the grazing.
