Set amidst the lush green vegetation of Nairobi National Park, the Animal Orphanage is a world renowned facility for its efforts in nurturing orphaned, aged, injured and abandoned wildlife. The facility is also a conservation education hub for schools, higher learning institutions and the public. Conservation education conducted here is in an effort to foster and rally Kenyans and the public at large to take part and contribute in conservation of our wildlife heritage for the present and future generations and for the world.
The wildlife enclosures are designed in such a way that the visitors get an upclose view of the animals from a safe distance. The description boards on the cages offer more information about the animal in the enclosure/cage thus allowing the visitors to derive a better experience from their visit. Visitors can enjoy guided tours and game viewing. The Orphanage also acts as a wildlife research centre especially to students/learning institutions.
