Wild Is Life & ZEN

Be the first one to rate! Submit Review

The most authentic and unforgettable wildlife encounter near Harare.

Visit Wild Is Life, a genuine, working wildlife sanctuary and the home of Zimbabwe’s first-ever elephant orphanage, the Zimbabwe Elephant Nursery (ZEN). This is not a zoo—it is a unique opportunity to witness the critical work of rescuing, rehabilitating, and re-wilding orphaned African animals.

What to Expect:

  • Intimate Encounters: Get a close-up look at rescued elephants, as well as a variety of other residents including lion, cheetah, pangolin, giraffe, and more.
  • Educational Afternoon Tours: Book our exclusive, highly-regarded tours to learn the powerful stories of these animals and be inspired to connect with the wild world.
  • Support Conservation: Every penny from your visit directly funds the essential care and eventual release of the animals back into the wild.

Planning Your Visit:

  • Tours are strictly by appointment only.
  • We deliberately limit guest numbers to ensure the welfare of our animals, so reservations are essential.
  • A truly ethical, inspiring, and meaningful attraction for travellers and locals alike.

Book your life-changing visit today!
