1. Chimfunshi Wildlife Orphanage
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 48 reviews
Chimfunshi Wildlife Orphanage Trust is one of the largest chimpanzee reserves in the world and is internationally recognized as such. Chimfunshi is home to 120 chimpanzees, most of them living in 4 large forested enclosures, and as close to their natural environment as possible. Chimfunshi started as a family-run wildlife orphanage in the north of Zambia, and today Chimfunshi is managed by a Board of Trustees to ensure the long-term sustainability of the Sanctuary. Chimfunshi was founded in 1983 when a game ranger brought a badly wounded infant chimpanzee to the cattle ranch of David and Sheila Siddle. The Siddle's nursed that chimp - named "Pal" - back to health, thereby establishing a tradition of care and respect that forms the legacy of the sanctuary. Once word of Pal's recovery spread, the Siddle's were inundated with orphaned chimpanzees. Sheila Siddle quoted "All I know is that I held a dying chimpanzee in my arms that day and it changed my life forever." Although many of the chimpanzees were confiscated from poachers who attempted to smuggle the infants into Zambia for sale as pets, an equally large number were rescued from dilapidated zoos and circuses from all over Africa, Asia, Europe and South America. With 120 chimpanzees, Chimfunshi is now one of the largest chimpanzee sanctuaries in the world. In 2002, an Education Centre was built to provide a facility to teach the youth of Zambia about ecology and wildlife conservation. Local and international students researching group behaviour and ethnic studies also use it. Chimfunshi Wildlife Orphanage operates entirely on donations and sponsorship, without the financial support provided by our valued Donors, volunteers and visitors, the sanctuary and its inhabitants could not survive. Join us for a day visit or overnight stay and be intrigued by humans' closest relative and learn about our similarities from our knowledgeable Keepers.

My friends and I came to hear of Lake Kashiba sometime in 1963. As we were keen on spear fishing, we decided to investigate. One weekend in 1964 Moe, Joe, and I [Mike], loaded our gear into my car and set course for the Lake. We were told that it was just past St. Anthony's Mission. We arrived fairly early on a Saturday morning, but had to park some way short of the lake as a stream with a narrow walking bridge had to be negotiated. 54 years ago there were no signs to say you had arrived. All we saw was bush, and more bush. However very soon some local young lads from the mission arrived. and showed us the way. I will never forget that first look at spirit lake. and remember the folk tale of the demise of the goat people who lived in that area many years ago. Our young friends assured us that there were fish in the lake, so we kitted up and went in. We shot a few small bream and a barbel, but never found any large fish. [ See photo[ Maybe one or two of the lads in the photo could be identified.I have a D.V.D. of a weekend at the lake with underwater film of spear fishing.I will be happy to send this clip to you [although i am sure spear fishing is now banned] if it will help to promote the lake and area. all best wishes, Mike.
