Harnas in Namibia
The original Harnas sanctuary is a formal refuge for wild animals founded by Marieta van der Merwe outside of Gobabis, approximately 300 km from Windhoek, the capital of Namibia. Currently, over 350 wild animals are being cared for at Harnas Gobabis.
Harnas has expanded to three additional sites in Namibia, shown:

Harnas is home to animals that have been displaced, abandoned, orphaned, abused, sick, injured, illegally traded, or endangered, or just too old. Some of the species of animals at the farm are listed to the right.
Harnas is particularly concerned with Cheetahs and African Wild Dogs, both of which are endangered species in this world. Currently, thirty-eight cheetahs thrive on the Harnas Farm. The Harnas Farm participates in genetic research of the African Wild Dogs for bio-medical data, disease screening and other genetic tracking. The Harnas Farm has one of the few growing African Wild Dog populations in Africa.
Harnas Gobabis also runs its "Lifeline" project for the release of rehabilitated animals. Here, the animals are released into protected habitat stocked with game for their first step to the return to the wild. The animals are tracked by GPS collars.
Harnas Gobabis in Namibia needs approximately U.S. $250 per day just to feed the animals. The 60+ lions, leopards, and cheetahs alone eat the equivalent of two horses each day. Additional costs are incurred for veterinary expenses, farm operations, land, enclosures, stocking game and GPS radio collars for the rehabilitation and ultimate release of animals.
