The Owl Orphanage Rehabilitation Centre in Velddrif, started by Jacques Nel in 2018, is a special place for injured and orphaned wildlife, especially birds of prey like owls and sparrowhawks. Since opening, they have helped over 2,000 animals, giving many a second chance at life. Jacques and his small team work tirelessly, often at night, to rescue and rehabilitate these creatures, facing challenges like pollution and cruelty. The center also educates the community about protecting wildlife, hoping to inspire kindness and care for nature. In this sanctuary, each rescued animal is a shining beacon of hope for a brighter future.
