Game and Mammals
Baboons and Ostriches, as well as Klipspringer. They all are controlled by natural selection through a limited amount of feed and some native predators (no hunting).

According to their preferences and abilities, the mammals are spread over all habitats on the farm area. Most of the game can be found on the grassy plains of the plateau or the Canyon Plains.
Not only since the re-naturalisation actions of the Vogelstrausskluft project, where native game was re-established and habitats were opened, life on the farm area comes back to its original state. Years before farming in major areas already was reduced, so that the natural balance of the animal population could start to regenerate.

Today the Vogelstrausskluft again houses several herds of Kudu and Oryx Antelopes, Springboks, Zebras and larger groups of
