Panthera Africa is an environmentally friendly sanctuary for any captive bred big cats, where they will be protected and prosper for the rest of their lives.
Panthera Africa’s primary mission is to serve as an educational platform that raises awareness about the challenges big cats face in captivity, emphasizing the critical importance of animal welfare and enrichment in providing them with the best possible life.
As a genuine sanctuary, Panthera Africa prohibits hands-on human interaction, breeding, and trading, setting a standard for non-profit organizations dedicated to animal welfare and self-sustainability.
Visit Panthera Africa
Panthera Africa believes in the connection between both environmental and wildlife conservation, and aims to become the first “green” big cat sanctuary in South Africa, and run solely on solar energy.
Panthera Africa has found its 40 hectare paradise with a beautiful home for the animals, the founders and the many volunteers visiting. The land is filled with lots of large trees, a natural spring and an amazing 180 degree mountain view!

Panthera Africa's slogan reads: “In unity there is strength” – and by standing together, human and animal, we believe in the possibility of a prosperous future for the big cats, and we take pride in ‘speaking’ on their behalf.
